For those who want light and warmth on their lives, from August 29 to September 1, 2024, Villa Tabor in Cesuna di Roana hosts "The Visceral Cry of Faith," a three-day biblical event dedicated to deep reflection on faith and God's presence in our lives.
This event, now in its 7^ edition, is a unique opportunity for believers and spirituality enthusiasts to immerse themselves in the study of the Bible and in activities of prayer and meditation.
During these days, the speakers, experts in theology and spirituality, will guide the participants through a path of meetings, conferences and workshops, with the aim of deepening their understanding of the mystery of faith and the divine presence.
The passion of some women for life enlivened by the Word of God becomes an open and enthusiastic competence, willing to involve anyone who wishes to do so in the real experience of rereading and living life in a regenerating and transformative way. The issues addressed in previous years offer a picture of the profound reflections proposed:
- 2018: Surprised by God Fruitful of Life
- 2019: Go to my brothers
- 2020: Surprised by the proposals: a God who challenges us
- 2021: Women of God, Mothers of a People: The Matriarchs of Israel
- 2022: Prophecy Arises in the Women of Israel
- 2023: In a dream God visits his friends
This year, with "The Visceral Cry of Faith", the radical journey of faith is proposed, which challenges every human suffering, through the cry of Job and the experience of Mary of Nazareth. The speakers - Antonella Anghinoni, Giuliva di Berardino, Sister Linda Pocher and Sister Viviana Tosatto - will lead us, through unknown paths, to a personal encounter with the faithful God.
It is important to bring your Bible with you, as it will be used during the sessions.
Participation in the course requires registration.
Full board options are available in a single or double/triple room.
To register, you must send an email to by July 15, 2024.
Don't miss this opportunity to live an intense and engaging experience of faith.
