Lenten Retreats for Parish Leaders

A God Who Hears His People

Parish leaders – priests, deacons and staff – are encouraged to join together for a day of prayer and personal reflection around the coming changes in parish structures as part of the Beacons of Light pastoral process. We hope to create a space for hospitality, listening and encounter with the Holy Spirit.
