Holy Week Silent Retreat

Join us for an extended silent retreat in which people have opportunities to:

• Attend the Holy Week liturgies with the sisters and others.
• Explore the theme of ‘they hear my voice’ through optional meetings for lectio divina (prayerful reading of scripture) and other contemplative engagements with the texts, liturgies and prayers of the week.
• Rest in the freedom from social expectations to speak or otherwise be engaged.
• Share a depth experience of the mysteries of Holy Week in a community of people seeking the same.
