Lenten Preparation Retreat: "Turn Thou Us, O Good Lord, and So Shall We be Turned: Fasting, Examen, and Confession"
On Saturday, February 26th at 9am, we will gather for a half-day retreat to help us better prepare for Lent! The retreat will focus on three important Lenten disciplines: fasting, self-examination, and confession. Fasting is when we eat less in order to master our passions and desires. Self-examination is reflecting on our conduct in light of God’s commands and holiness. Confession is a biblical practice that we do after self-reflection.
Here is the schedule for the day:
9:00-9:15 Morning Prayer
9:15-9:30 Refreshments
9:30-10:15 Session 1
