2018 Online Lenten Retreat
During the solemn penitential season of Lent, we prepare ourselves physically and spiritually to walk through the desert with Jesus Christ. The use of purple vestments, and the absence of the Gloria and the Alleluia at Mass and in the Divine Office, are sober reminders of Holy Week and the great feast of Easter to follow. We should examine in earnest our sins and detachments. This period of atonement, prayer and fasting calls us to greater holiness in imitation of Christ. Lent is a time to strengthen our prayer lives — to pray more, and to pray better. Pray More Novenas has a Lenten retreat starting Ash Wednesday, February 14 . The retreat features inspiring talks to deepen your prayer life and love of God. This online offering features sixteen talks on prayer . Each comes with a study guide of questions, prompts and reflections. You may download the talks as an audio recording should you wish to listen to them later. (See complete list below.)
