EVENING OF PRAYER | FRIDAY, JANUARY 22ND
Are you ready to pray together...in-person? We will be gathering in the main church at St. Robert Parish in Shorewood, WI on Friday, January 22nd. The evening begins at 7:00 p.m. and will consist of a talk on "deeper conversion" from Fr. John Burns, as well as an hour of Eucharistic adoration with music. We will conclude around 8:30 p.m. As much as possible, we are hoping for a more retreat-like atmosphere for this time of prayer together. If you are planning to attend, please adhere to the following COVID-19 guidelines.
Some specific directives for attendees:
SUNDAY VIRTUAL SESSIONS | ZOOM LINK HERE
Every Sunday evening at 7:30 p.m. there will be a formation session on a particular topic related to prayer, friendship, and mission. See the session schedule HERE.
