Advent Day Retreat: Advent Joy- Prepare, Repair, and Care

St. John the Apostle Building 300

$40 per person


Advent is a 'season for all seasons' because it can teach us so much about living a spiritual life each day.  During this retreat experience, we will let our hearts journey with joy as we prayerfully prepare for the coming of Jesus, reflect on ways to repair and enhance our relationships with God and others, and be reminded to gently care for ourselves as children of our loving God.

 

The grounds will be open for personal reflection and our Gift Shop will be open for your Advent and Christmas needs.

Online registration has closed. Please call Jazmine Hernandez, Program Assistant, to inquire about availability.
