The retreat was hosted by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/catholicartistconference\/\"><span class=\"s1\">Called to Create<\/span><\/a>, an apostolate for Catholic visual artists designed to help them to see their call to create as a divine spark, and a response to God\u2019s invitation to discover and share his beauty and truth.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Stained-and-Sainted.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-158864 size-full lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"510\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-158864 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Stained-and-Sainted.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Stained-and-Sainted.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Stained-and-Sainted-300x204.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The weekend retreat consisted of daily Mass, confessions, the rosary, studio time during which the artists were able to paint and create, and talks by Dr. Ceil Dorger and Fr. Thomas Flynn, LC.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Ceil is an art historian and author who specializes in sacred art, particularly images of the Virgin Mary. Her passion for art history began when she was just a young child, accompanying her aunt and grandma on visits to the Art Institute of Chicago. She went on to teach art history at Mount St. Joseph University in Cincinnati before pursuing her doctorate with a focus on Marian art. Ceil spoke to retreatants about the history of cathedrals, and the use of stained glass as it developed throughout the ages, sharing important pieces, such as the 15-meter high windows of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sainte-chapelle.fr\/en\/discover\/history-of-the-sainte-chapelle\"><span class=\"s1\">Sainte-Chapelle<\/span><\/a> in Paris, and Bernini\u2019s well-known <a href=\"https:\/\/vatican.com\/St-Peters-Cathedra-Petri\/\"><span class=\"s1\">Cathedra Petri<\/span><\/a> in St. Peter\u2019s Basilica in Rome.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Historically, Ceil shared, there were three main reasons why churches frequently incorporated the use of paintings, sculpture, stained glass, and other forms of sacred art into their interiors and architecture: images provided instruction and formation for those unable to read, they were frequent and dynamic reminders of the mysteries of God and the examples of the saints, and they were meant to inspire feelings of devotion which are often more effectively stirred by things seen rather than things heard. Ceil encouraged the retreatants to put to its best use the great gift they had been given by God to create beauty, and reminded them of the words of Pope St. John Paul II in his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vatican.va\/content\/john-paul-ii\/en\/letters\/1999\/documents\/hf_jp-ii_let_23041999_artists.html\"><span class=\"s1\">Letter to Artists<\/span><\/a>:<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cBeauty is a key to the mystery and a call to transcendence. May your art help to affirm that true beauty, which as a glimmer of the Spirit of God, will transfigure matter, opening the human soul to the sense of the eternal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss3-1600x1200.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-158863 size-large lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-158863 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss3-1600x1200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss3-1600x1200.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss3-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss3.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Fr. Thomas\u2019 talk was titled \u201cStained and Sainted,\u201d and provided the overall theme of the retreat. In this talk, he spoke on the idea that the true human experience means being both stained and sainted, both a sinful people, and a people in whom God\u2019s grace is alive and at work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cHenri Nouwen reminds us to keep our eyes open to the many ways we are tempted to deny our identity as beloved, and this denial often leads us to act in ways that stain our spirit,\u201d said Fr. Thomas. \u201cWhen we confess, we acknowledge our imperfections and the stains they leave behind. In this space of truth, we begin to understand that our stains do not define us; rather, they are part of our human experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">He went on to say that confession is a process that can be likened to polishing a tarnished piece of silver \u2013 removing the stains reveals the brilliance underneath. \u201cWhen we allow ourselves to be vulnerable and open, we uncover the potential to become sainted \u2013 people who reflect love, compassion, and authenticity. Our experiences of confession and redemption become testimonies of hope.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The retreat also involved the opportunity for <i>visio divina<\/i>, a method of prayer through the contemplation of images and art. \u201cThrough this ancient form of Christian prayer, we allow our hearts and imaginations to enter into a sacred image, in silence, and see what God might have to say to us,\u201d says Ceil.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss2-1600x1200.jpg\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-158862 size-large lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-158862 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss2-1600x1200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss2-1600x1200.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/ss2.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Ceil continues to share her love of Mary using the beauty of art as an instrument for talks, classroom videos, and tours of area churches.
