December 1st, 2021

07:00 pm

The season of Advent passes quickly, join us on December 1st at 7:00 p.m. for a virtual Advent evening retreat led by Fr. Timothy Gallagher, OMV. Fr. Timothy is a sought-after retreat director and former provincial of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary in the United States, he is the author of nearly a dozen books about the spirituality of Saint Ignatius of Loyola, including The Examen Prayer and, most recently, The Discernment of Spirits in Marriage. Hosted by seminarians of Saint John’s Seminary and featuring music from the seminary’s Schola Cantorum, the event will allow you to reflect on the fundamental themes of this beloved season with the guidance of a renowned spiritual author and help you prepare your heart for the Lord’s coming at Christmas.

We hope you’ll join us live as we begin another Advent in a spirit of prayer and reflection.
