Christ Renews His Parish Women’s Retreat Come join us for a two day weekend that will strengthen your bond with God and your fellow parishioners! The renewal weekend is given for parishioners by parishioners. It is a process designed to bring members of a parish together in Christ. It emphasizes continued growth in Christian life and in our daily contacts with others. The weekend is an opportunity to hear and discuss how we live as Catholics in our modern complex society.
The atmosphere is casual and we will begin friendships that will last a lifetime. It will be a time of prayer, sharing, love, and laughter. The weekend will be an opportunity to take a break from our busy schedules and give us an opportunity to renew ourselves spiritually.
The retreat will be October 23rd & 24th for women of the parish over the age of 19. It begins on Saturday at 7:30am and ends on Sunday at 4pm. Meals prepared with love will be provided. A $25 donation is suggested. Contact Cindy at 752.6232, Cathy at 751.2902, or Susan at 752.8175 to sign up!
