Days of Reflection
Set aside a day to listen, pray, and draw closer to the Lord. A Day of Reflection can be tailored to your group and usually runs from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The day may include Mass and Confession, witness talks, teaching, small-group sharing, a closing prayer or ceremony, and time for continental breakfast and lunch. Sacramental celebrations are arranged with the parish and participating priest.
Choose a theme for your day or combine elements from these programs:
Boot Camp for the Kingdom — Strengthen the foundations of your spiritual life through prayer, the Divine Office, praise music, and reflection. The program may also include Healing of the Family Tree.
Walking in the Kingdom — Discover practical tools and prayers to grow in holiness and respond to God’s call to sainthood in everyday life.
Behind the Veil — Explore what it means to live with an awareness of the Kingdom of Heaven while navigating the realities of daily life.
Strength for the Journey — Learn to listen to God through Scripture, journaling, and spiritual guidance that nurture a deeper daily prayer life.
Keys to Freedom — Reflect on faith, trust, obedience, and love, and how these four keys can open your heart to greater spiritual freedom.
A Walk with Jesus — A mini-retreat with Mass, reflection on Jesus’ miracles, and a visit to the Shroud of Turin exhibit at St. Brendan the Navigator Catholic Church in Cumming, Georgia. This experience involves travel to the parish.

Books and Small Group Studies
Linda Rose’s books invite readers to make room for God each day through Scripture, prayer, reflection, and journaling. They may be used for personal growth or shared with a group.
Strength for Your Journey and Devotional Companion — A yearlong journey of spiritual reflection, with an eight-week Study Guide available for a shorter group experience. These resources help participants examine their lives, grow closer to the Triune God, and develop a daily practice of journaling.
The book series, devotional companion, and study guide bear the imprimatur and nihil obstat from the Archdiocese of Miami. Spanish editions are available.
Invitation to Intimacy — A self-contained, thirty-day journal that invites readers into daily spiritual reflection and a deeper relationship with God.
Women’s Retreats
Step away from the demands of everyday life and make room to hear God’s voice. Linda Rose works with women’s groups to design one-, three-, or five-day retreats shaped around the needs of their community.
Retreats may focus on contemplation, healing, learning, or mission, with time to pray, reflect, and share the journey with other women.
Linda Rose leads retreats away from the parish at the Heritage Center in Crawfordville, Georgia, and can assist your group in planning the experience.
Men’s Ministry
Linda Rose developed Fishers of Men, a quarterly men’s ministry that supports men in growing in faith and living out their calling. If your parish would like to establish or expand a men’s ministry, she is available to help guide and support the process.
Planning Your Gathering
Every parish and group has its own story, hopes, and needs. We would welcome the opportunity to hear yours and help you choose a program—or create a combination—that serves your community.
Please get in touch to discuss your preferred dates, group, and the kind of gathering you have in mind. We look forward to walking with you as you help others experience God in their everyday lives.
