LENTEN THRESHOLD BIBLE SERIES
Join Fr. Ignatius Kissel, OSM, and Patricia Flynn, LCSW and Spiritual Director, in a Lenten Bible Study: People of the Passion.
Examine how suffering seems to bring out the best and worst in our human nature. Some people are overcome with hopelessness that leads to despair; others are filled with courage that leads to heroism. Still others exhibit a wide range of responses that reveal their character: trust, generosity, steadfastness, cowardice, greed, or pride.
The people of the passion in this study are the characters who participated in some dramatic way in the suffering and death of Jesus. Well-known characters include Peter, Pilate, and Mary Magdalene; lesser known include Simon of Cyrene, the daughters of Jerusalem, and the women who anointed Jesus. We will meet for six consecutive Thursdays from 3-4:30pm in the Grotto Auditorium, from February 18th through March 25th.
A donation of $10 is requested to cover the cost of materials.
For more information or to register please call 503-254-7371 or email [email protected]

Join Patricia Flynn, LCSW and Spiritual Director, and Fr. Ignatius Kissel, OSM, for a Lenten Retreat and desert experience on Saturday, March 13, 2010, from 9am-3pm in The Grotto Conference Center.
Take time to remove yourself from life's busyness, using tools to draw inward to the still silent place where we meet God. Discover what fills the emptiness of your life, preventing a closer relationship with God. Learn more about prayer, practicing centering prayer as a vehicle for bringing contemplative time into your hectic life. Prepare yourself for the upcoming Easter Triduum by letting God speak to your heart.
