2025 Lent Day of Recollection with Fr. Malachy Napier, CFR

"Come away by yourselves and rest for a while" (Mark 6:31).

We invite you to a special day of reflection and prayer as we prepare for the mystery of the Passion and Death of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the sacred, joyful season of his Resurrection.

Fr. Malachy Joseph Napier of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal will be our speaker and retreat leader.

The day begins at 9:00am and includes Mass, two spiritual meditations, time for small group spiritual discussion and personal prayer, lunch, Eucharistic adoration, and the opportunity to receive the sacrament of reconciliation. There will be an indoor Eucharistic procession with reverent worship music and healing prayers offered during the Holy Hour.

To cover lunch and other expenses, early bird registration is $35 per person. Registration after March 15 is $40.

Volunteers are appreciated and will receive 50% off the ticket price! If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Sylvia at [email protected].

We look forward to seeing you!
