Advent Day Retreat- Praying Like It Matters

Immaculate Conception Parish Advent Day Retreat: "Praying Like It Matters: 4 Steps Towards Divine Intimacy"

Life moves fast, and even when we’re praying or going to Mass, it can be hard to feel close to God. This Advent, we invite you to take a breath and spend a day learning how to pray more immediately and authentically. Fr. Alex Wyvill will show us the practical ways we can bring our whole selves into prayer—our thoughts, feelings, and desires—and to let God respond.

Scholarships are also available. If you have any questions or would like additional information about scholarships, please contact Savannah at skleemanic@gmail.com.

Early bird pricing is $20 per person. Registration after November 23 is $25 per person.
