Sister of the Most Precious Blood: Desert Day

Desert Day: Monday May 21, 2012  9:30-3:30 p.m. Free will offering.  Lunch Provided

Description: How often have you said to yourself:  I really need a day of prayer and quiet! Desert Days are just that.  The desert has always been a symbol for a meeting place with God. The day will begin with Lectio Divina on the day's Scripture.  The remainder of the day is solitude, quiet, reflection, and rest.  The day will end with prayer.  Come to the quiet and listen as God speaks to your heart. 

          I will allure her into the desert and speak to her heart.     (Hosea 2:16)
