Lenten Retreat - Renewing my Relationship with Jesus

Presenter:  Deacon Bill Gervais D Min

In our sessions together, we will be guided by the gospels, church traditions, aspects of  Ignatian spirituality, and especially the wisdom of Pope Benedict who claimed being a Christian requires an intimate relationship with Jesus. “If my desire is solely to be devout, and to perform my religious duties, then my friendship with God will grow arid It will become loveless.” (Deus Caritas Est, 18)
