Lenten Day of Prayer: Finding Our Mission from the One Who Calls Us Together
A Day of Reflection for Adults
Monday, March 24, 2025
9:00 am to 3:00 pm
Program Cost: $75.00 (includes Lunch)
Summary
By the time of this retreat, we’re half-way through Lent. Most likely, many of our Lenten Resolutions will have lapsed. Now what?
Joining us on this day of reflection will allow us to gather together and reflect on several foundational scripture passages from this Lent – not to salvage our self-esteem, but to approach God in Christ through the Holy Spirit as beloved, sinful persons, who receive our mission from the One who calls us together.
To be known, as we are known by the Lord, as a way to prepare to celebrate the Easter sacraments.
Description
A day or evening of reflection, grounded in the Jesuit tradition, is a shorter version of the Ignatian Weekend Retreat. Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, a day or evening program is sure to give you the peace and serenity needed to be still and to rest in God's loving embrace.
