Sacred Passages: An Ash Wednesday Retreat

Ash Wednesday opens the door to begin an extraordinary journey of soul work and making whole our relationship with God and each other. We enter a time of intention, where penance, sacrifice and acts of mercy help us navigate our return to spiritual wholeness. Where are you being called this Lenten season? You are invited to explore this call during a morning of prayer, reflection, and gentle conversation. Our time will conclude with Ash Wednesday liturgy, a simple repast of soup and a gathering of graces.
