Advent and Christmas come and go every year and some of us may look back and wonder: "Did I really make Advent a priority in preparing for the coming of Christ? Did I get caught up in the busyness of Christmas without silencing my heart and mind?" Or, are you currently in a season of waiting where you are constantly wondering when it will come to an end?
Beloved Daughters Ministry is excited to create a space for each of you, along with Fr. Cristino Bouvette, the parish priest of the newly built Sacred Heart church in Strathmore. Come as you are in the waiting for our Lord this season. Come and surrender all that may be on your mind and turn this waiting into a time of transformation. A time of quiet and stillness. A time to be attentive to the stirrings of your heart. This wait is not purposeless but serving a purpose for our greater good.
Whether you are waiting, or simply experiencing joy at this time of your life, this advent retreat will be a gift to you. Come and prepare your hearts for the King of kings!
