• The Work of Silence

    Integrating Silence into Daily Life

Work of Silence Retreats

Join fellow Catholics for a morning retreat devoted to cultivating the power of silence in your daily life. In our noisy and media-saturated culture, do others notice anything different about us as Catholics? Through this Lenten "mini-retreat," you will have the opportunity to reflect on:

 

  • What can we learn from Jesus about silence?

  • What are the obstacles which present us from doing the hard 'work' of silence?

  • How can we integrate silence into our daily life? 

 

Through Mass, a continental breakfast, two talks, Eucharistic Adoration, and Q&A, you will have the opportunity to hit 'reset' during this Lent and approach your day-to-day faith with renewed zeal.
