From Resentment to Resurrection: Within the Real Presence is the Promis

Saturday, February 29, 2020
Cretin-Derham Hall
1 - 5:30 pm 

1:00 pm    Gathering and Opening Prayer

Wisdom from the Desert • Stories from Sacred Scripture • Modern Writers

Individual Time for Reflection, Prayer, and Writing

Sharing Common Themes and Insights

4:00 pm    Celebration of the Eucharist for the First Sunday of Lent (Fr. Pat Kennedy)

4:45 pm    Soup Supper

5:30 pm    Close

There is no fee for this retreat, but registration will help with preparations.

The theme of resentment will be explored through the Writings of the Desert Fathers (Mothers), Sacred Scripture and the contemporary writer, Anne LaMott.  

Time will be given for reflection, writing, and sacrament as we begin this Season of Renewal as we recognize that resentment can be a path through the real paschal mystery of our lives. And because God's grace "always bats last," we can embrace resurrection moments in forgiveness.
 
Light refreshments and journals will be available for participants.
 
Please register no later than Thursday, February 27.  Please send your name to Lou Anne Tighe, ltighe@c-dh.org, or call 651.696.3353.
