The Oratory once again hosted an icon writing retreat directed by Fr. Damian Higgins, Ukrainian Rite. Seven participants prayed and learned the traditional egg tempera method of icon writing. Br. Josemaria, C.O. wrote an icon of Saint Philip Neri, as he might have looked when he was 36 (1551), the year he was ordained a priest and seven years after the Holy Spirit entered his body in a ball of fire in the Catacombs of the Basilica of Saint Sebastian.
