Theme: This Lenten retreat will invite its participants into the history and traditions of our faith as we contemplate together the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope, and our ability to sanctify space and time. Additionally, it will welcome participants to examine their day to day interactions with what is spiritual and sacred, while offering practical guidance and suggestions on how to integrate the wisdom of the Church and her saints on these topics into their daily routines of life.
