Quickly on the tail of Fall comes the ‘Holiday Season’ filled with activities one upon the other.
And it is easy for all those activities and their preparations to be exactly what distracts us from their deeper meaning. This seems to be especially true for the celebration of the Incarnation – Christmas. We easily overlook the whole season designed to help us prepare for the Great Feast. Advent is the season of preparation, of waiting. But what are you preparing for? What are you waiting for? The answer to that is unique to each person and their relationship with the one for whom we wait. This program will invite you to consider those who have shown us how to wait, to quiet ourselves, to listen and to celebrate the gift of waiting.
This program will include, input, opportunities for personal quiet and reflection and sharing.
We are offering our Advent 2022 retreat at two different times. The retreat is the same, but to accommodate peoples schedule Sr. Roselle is hosting a morning offering and an evening offering. Registration is for one or the other. You must attend the retreat you registered for.
Date: December 7
Time: 10 AM — 12Noon Central (This is the morning offering of our Advent Retreat)
