Good Morning,

As we journey deeper into Lent, we recall that this season is one of preparation. We are preparing ourselves for the celebration of the Paschal mystery in the Holy Triduum, culminating in the joy of Easter.

We invite you to consider making your celebration of the Paschal Triduum the Holy Three Days, into a full retreat experience. We will guide you through these sacred days so important to Passionists. We will emphasize principally the liturgical celebrations of the Triduum observed within the atmosphere of silence for personal reflection. We will also include some customary retreat conferences and devotions. Our hospitality, food, and music will refresh your body and spirit as we journey together through these most sacred days.

There is limited space remaining , you can now register online or call 561-626-1300. The cost for the event is $400.

Sincerely,

Sandi Lanowich

Retreat Secretary

Being Prepared for the Cross

Here I am in Rome embracing the Holy Cross of my beloved Jesus. I already foresee many trials, but I trust that in God we will overcome all of them. Next week the Constitutions go to the sacred Congregation. I don't know what the outcome will be, but I hope it will be good. I am not prepared for anything except for strong and close embraces of the Holy Cross.

Prayer: Jesus, Paul loved you. He heard your love through your Cross and the crosses you invited him to share with you. May I hear your love for me the same way and be just as willing to embrace the crosses I need to follow you.
