Although we may still be recovering from the celebration of Christmas, Lent is quickly approaching. During these weeks, the Church and the Scriptures for the season invite us back into the desert–a place of quiet–to simplify our lives so we can deepen our relationship with God and one another and grow in the awareness that only God can satisfy our deepest hungers.
Join the Franciscan Friars for four weeks of Lenten Reflections, beginning on Wednesday, February 21st . Through reflection, prayer, and fellowship we will journey together towards the abundant life of Easter!

The first 30 registrants will be assigned to the Daytime Lenten Reflections which will begin at 10:00 AM and include a Lenten reflection, the celebration of Holy Mass, and lunch with the friars. This workshop will be $20 per class or $60 for the four-week series. If there is enough demand, we will host Evening Lenten Reflections which will begin at 6:30 PM and include a Lenten reflection and a prayer service. The evening class will be $10 per class or $30 for the four-week series.

All classes will be held at St. Bernardine Monastery, 768 Monastery Road, Hollidaysburg. To register for the workshop, please send your payment to: Franciscan Friars, TOR, PO Box 139, Hollidaysburg, PA 16648. For questions, please call 814-695-3802. We look forward to seeing you!
