The St. Monica Guild will be holding an
Advent Retreat at St. Francis Resort in Denville, NJ on Saturday, December 5, 2015 from 8:30 AM to 11:30 AM. The subject of the Retreat is
Mary at the Manger and Mary at the Cross
Prepare this Advent season for the celebration of Christmas by Reflecting on Mary at the foot of the manger and the foot of the cross. Mary’s perfect discipleship shows us how we too can welcome Christ with joy as he enters not only the world but our lives and how we can look forward with faith and hope to His second coming despite the difficulties and obstacles of our world. The Retreat will be lead by Fathrer Chris Barkhausen, parochial vicar of St. Patrick Church in Chatham and the diocesan Boy Scout chaplain.
