Lent is one of those seasons that begins with the best of intentions. We plan to pray more, eat less and find ways to make the season more sacred. But, too often we treat Lent as though it is one more goal to accomplish, a resolution redux that puts the focus on us rather than on God. Lent is not a pass-fail test! During this parish evening retreat, we’ll look at our Lenten practices through the prism of compassion, humor, and, of course, prayer. Join writer and retreat leader Mary DeTurris Poust for this free event with lots of practical tips for making the most of the Lenten season.

The evening begins with an optional Mass at 6 p.m., followed by refreshments, a presentation, and time for sharing.
