Transformed by Grace: Our Life in Communion with God and One Another
As the season of Lent begins, join us for a threefold process of input, reflection and discussion. We will contemplate our participation with the transforming grace of conversion integral to our lives in communion with God. With input by Sr. Meg Guider, OSF and facilitation by Sr. Joan Scanlon, OP, we will learn more about the complementarity of our many charisms and strengthen our identity as reconciling witnesses of the mercy of God, the Reign of God, and the mystery of the Passion, death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
