Whether you are new to Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta or have been studying her writings for decades we invite you to join us for the weekend to immerse yourself in the Divine Will. Those of us who have been journeying with Luisa for months, years, or decades feel as if we have found a great treasure hidden in a field and are overjoyed when we can meet with others who appreciate the gift we have been offered through her, and to learn to live it in a deeper way.
