Lenten Retreat Day – Seeking and Finding Hope in the Midst of Uncertainty

Friday, March 4, 2022

9:00 am – 3:00 pm

in-person with Fr. Phil Cover

The pandemic has turned our lives and everything we knew and trusted upside down and inside out. Yet, in the season of Lent, we are invited to engage hope and promise by pondering the undercurrents that have so disrupted the flow of life — and therein encounter new life as we discover the spiritual power hidden in the turmoil. Join us as we together bring to light what God seeks to teach us about who God is in all of our experiences.

“My soul waits for the Lord.” – “So now, Lord, for what do I wait?”

Psalm 33:20 – Psalm 39:7

On this retreat day, we will form spiritual community, pray, reflect, and share together what we long for, what we are waiting for. Together we will reopen the importance of community as a sacred place for holding the uncertainty and suffering long enough to be profoundly transformed by it. REGISTER HERE: LentenHope.
