renewal – UniteBoston

Are you ready to experience a transformational journey that could change your life? Join us to the Fully Alive retreat, a dynamic spiritual retreat hosted by the Shalom Catholic Community in Cambridge.

What is Fully Alive?

Fully Alive is a Life in the Spirit Seminar designed to guide you into a deeper connection with the love of God—a love that forgives, heals, fills, and transforms. This event offers a unique opportunity to explore the gifts of the Holy Spirit and experience a life enriched by divine love.

Event Highlights:

Praise and Worship: Engage in uplifting moments of spiritual renewal.
Prayer and Reflection: Receive personal prayer from dedicated missionaries.
Community and Connection: Share experiences and build friendships during interactive sessions and social hangouts.
Inspirational Talks: Discover powerful insights on these topics listed below:

How to satisfy your heart’s desires: The world, and even our own past, has given us enough reasons to believe that we’re unworthy of love: to be loved and to love. Discover how God is crazy in love with you and how you can live this truth after this weekend.
The ultimate choice: We all have our own story. It has shaped the way we think, perceive, act and love. Unknowingly, we’re held captive by sorrows and wounds of the past that bring fear to accepting healing and change. This will be an opportunity for you to make the choice to allow Jesus to come in and restore light into your life, giving meaning and purpose for your life.
Unshakable joy: God knows how difficult it is for us to understand His immense love and care for us when we’re constantly at war with ourselves and the voices of the world. Learn about His promise to you and the finding of true joy and happiness after every fight.
Just the beginning: A weekend together is just the beginning of a new journey, a new time! Explore ways you can continuously grow in faith, in your relationship with Jesus, and how to live it in community after this retreat!

This summer, UniteBoston is hosting a series of four backyard concerts throughout the neighborhoods of Boston. This collaborative space invites Christian artists and budding songwriters to share the songs, poems, artwork, and dances that have emerged out of the challenges of this past year. Our hope is that these concerts will restore bonds of friendship, justice, and resilience, bringing renewal to the body of Christ and our surrounding communities. We’ve lamented, we’ve grieved; now it’s time to come together to rejoice and RENEW.

1 Peter 5:10 – After you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who called you into his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, will himself restore, establish, strengthen, and support you.

Dates & Locations:

Saturday July 10th | 6:30 to 8:30pm | Dorchester

Thursday July 22nd | 6:30 to 8:30pm | Medford

Saturday July 31st | 6:30 to 8:30pm | Roxbury

Sunday August 29 | 6:30 to 8:30pm | Dorchester

We are grateful for friends of UniteBoston who have graciously opened their backyards for us to host these concerts. Because of the limited capacity of these spaces, we are requiring registration. Click here to register via Eventbrite. After registration, you will also receive an email with the specific address of the backyard concert.

Also: We welcome all artists and creative-types to participate in the open mic portion of the concerts! Click here to sign up to share a song, spoken word poem, dance, or visual artistic piece during the open mic series. We seek to create an environment that is welcoming to people of all skill levels.

Please help us to spread the word to colleagues, friends, and neighbors – a great way to do this is through the Facebook event. All are welcome!
