Jodi Blazek Gehr, Being Benedictine & SoulFully You Blogger
In May 2024, I graduated from high school again….40 years later! For 27 years, I was a high school business teacher.
My passion is practicing SoulCollage®, writing blog posts for my websites, Being Benedictine and SoulFully You, and leading retreats on creativity and spirituality.
I have been a Benedictine Oblate at Christ the King Priory since 2011. St. Benedict Center has been my oasis of peace since 2002. I am a lover of learning, reading, and writing and a compulsive curator of images, information, and inspiration.
I have been married to Joe since 1985. We were blessed with a daughter, Jessica Morgan, in 1994. She was married to John in 2021.
Half-day, Full Day, or Overnight SoulFully You Retreats are available for your church, organization or group. To request information about hosting your own special program or retreat see a list of themes HERE.
If you have questions or comments about SoulCollage®, Benedictine spirituality, becoming an Oblate, writing a guest blog 
post, or planning a retreat, just drop me a note.
Blessings, Jodi
SoulFully You

What an absolutely wonderful article! My brother, Emanuel Bartek, knows the Blazek’s well – Our dad, Ivan Bartek, farmed in Agnew, just 5 miles south of Val. We all attended Valparaiso School. Such great childhood memories. Thank you. Marilyn Bartek-Wadum
