taking a 24 hour prayer retreat, part one

1. Set a date

Yes, even before you know why you're going or what you're going to do, please sit down with your daytimer and carve out space. 24 hours is wonderful, but don't give-up if all you can find is a morning or an afternoon.

These spaces are "made" not "born." Something else will have to be paused or cancelled, especially in the beginning. That's just fine though. You will emerge from your 24 hours much more focused, creative, and kind :-).
