LENTEN SPIRITUAL JOURNEY

FINDING FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD THROUGH PRAYER

Fr. Gerry McKeon S.J.

During the past two years of Covid protocols, social distancing, schools and workplaces closed, people have found an uncomfortable amount of time spent alone. A mild anxiety can be felt when you don’t know how to live in the silence and quiet. Many report battles with depression or acting out with social media, food, drink or other substances.

Some have turned to prayer. But where to start? We’re out of practice. It seems strange to sit in a chair and call out to God who we cannot see. Yet we know deep down this is where we can find God in our life.

So, why not join us this Lent to discover once again (or perhaps for the first time!) the power and beauty of prayer? Fr. Gerry McKeon S.J. will be with us for four days (March 18-21) to help us each find our own way of praying. See the schedule below and the topics to be discussed.


No registration needed and a meatless meal on Friday is our parish gift to you.
Come as you are – all are welcome!
