feedback from the participants<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA unique course to the last with an excellent balance between theory and practice. I went into this course intending to have a good tool in my hand to work with the children in school. Still, I was the first to benefit from this tool because each session invited me to a personal prayer experience that I will definitely continue to cherish. Speakers with strong charisma and conviction in what they are saying. You don&#8217;t get tired of ever listening to them, instead, you feel thirsty for more. The dynamics created by everything shared between the participants instil joy and a brotherly spirit. I say it with my face in front: it was one of the courses I wished wasn&#8217;t over. I recommend it with all my heart, especially for those who feel cut off and always run to keep up with life&#8217;s commitments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><em>Sr Elaine Mifsud<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI applied for this course to get some quality time to grow spiritually and personally, considering how I could use my talents for the good of others. Although I had been familiar with Prayer Spaces for several years, during this course, I had the opportunity to share with other like-minded people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We had the opportunity to experience Prayer Spaces and share our views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fr Paul Chetcuti, Fr Reuben Gauci and Ms Silvana Cardona all did their utmost to convey their knowledge and experience in a very practical manner. The live connections with foreign counterparts were particularly appreciated.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><em>Pauline Abela<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThree weeks passed in a blink of an eye. The course was so interesting and invigorating to both the psychological and spiritual side of the self. It was multifaceted in that it touched on aspects of psychology, spirituality, and theology and gave us direct hands-on experience. I highly recommend this journey.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><em>Christine Trevisan<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":146623,"template":"","event-category":[409],"class_list":["post-149334","events","type-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event-category-educators"],"toolset-meta":{"event-details":{"event-starting-date":{"type":"date","raw":"1669075200","formatted":"22\/11\/2022"},"event-end-date":{"type":"date","raw":"","formatted":null},"event-location":{"type":"textfield","raw":"St Venera"},"event-audience":{"type":"textfield","raw":"Educators"},"event-time":{"type":"textfield","raw":"5pm - 8pm"},"event-short-details":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"maps-location":{"type":"google_address","raw":"VFQC+4WC, Palazz L Ahmar, Santa Venera, Malta"},"map-location-description":{"type":"textfield","raw":""},"event-registration-text":{"type":"textfield","raw":"Register"},"event-registration-link":{"type":"url","raw":""},"languages":{"type":"textfield","raw":""}}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sds.mt\/mt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events\/149334","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sds.mt\/mt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sds.mt\/mt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/events"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/sds.mt\/mt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events\/149334\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":149337,"href":"https:\/\/sds.mt\/mt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events\/149334\/revisions\/149337"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sds.mt\/mt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/146623"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sds.mt\/mt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149334"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"event-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sds.mt\/mt\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-category?post=149334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
