Why YOU Should Attend a Retreat This Lenten Season We live in a world of busyness - constant noise, activity, distraction, hurry and stress. God is with us in the midst of the confusion and hurry, but it's often hard for us to recognize him. A retreat is one way to slow down so we can fully hear His call. It's an opportunity to take a fresh look at life, sort things out. How is life going? Where is it going? Where is God in all this? In the peace of a retreat we can find a heightened awareness of God, and a renewed energy and enthusiasm to walk in our Catholic Christian life.
Here at St. Michael, members of this faith community have numerous opportunities to go on retreats, but only two are offered during Lent. Discover why you should attend the Women's Lenten Morning of Reflection (March 12) and the St. Michael Lenten Retreat (March 19).
