RIGHTEOUS NEWS EDITOR OF Inc othr
At the beautiful Loyola Re-
treat House overlooking the
Potomac River at Faulkner.
Md, a retreat open to Profess
tants and Jews as we'll as
Catholics is being held this
week end.
The inspiration for this I'M
usual interfaith three-day re-
treat came from a newspaper
story the Rev. James A. Martin.
director of Loyola Retreat
House, read last year in San
Francisco.
On the first page Of the paper
a headline said, Il Am a
Protestant; I Made a Retreat
at a Jesuit Retreat House in
Los Altos. Calf"
The story then told of the
writer's experience at the Jesuit
TeJTedI house.
1.-The account" Father Mar
tin explained, made me realize
that what we are trying to do
for Catholic men-give them
peace of mind-should be made
available to others.
Retreat an Instrument
1--WE have tried out success
fully an instrument for peace
of mind. If we can make this
available to men of every faith
in this chaotic world, we will
be making an outstanding con-
tribution to our community, to
the government and to a better
understanding among all men
Of goodwill"
Father Martin said a retreat
is a period of meditation and
thought carefully arranged to
give the retreatant IAN oppor-
tunity to come face-to-face
with divine truths"
The retreat this week end
consists of readings from the
Bible and other spiritual works,
meditations, and brief talks on
spiritual subjects by the retreat
master. The Rev. William F..
ErdozainS, visiting professor of
philosophy, Georgetown Uni
verSity, is serving as retreat
master.
There is only one strict rule
during the three-day period
silence.
Insist on Silence
1--WE Jesuits, specialists in re-
treat work, realize that silence
is all important" Father Mar
tin explained. Consequently,
although reluctantly, we find
we must make it clear to each
person that if a man finds it
too difficult to keep the rule
of silence, we must ask him to
leave"
This rule apparently has not
been a bar to those desiring to
come. for since the retreat
house began operating on Oc-
tober 10, 1858, each retreat is
usually at near capacity.
Beginning in October this
year. the retreats will be ex-
tended to four days, starting
Thursday evening and ending
Sunday afternoon.
Father Martin is a former
Air Force chaplain who saw
service during the war in
Africa, the Mediterranean and
Italy. He has been in charge
of the Loyola Retreat House
since it opened in 1858.
