"Before He ascended into heaven, Jesus, paradoxically declares, “Behold, I am with you until the end of time.” The great women mystics of the Catholic tradition have discovered in prayer how this mysterious presence of Christ is at work in our lives. Following their insights, we will explore how to respond to this great gift.”
This talk will take place in the Church during Adoration.
