Advent Quiet Day

December 9, 2023 @ 9:30 am - 1:00 pm

The disciples asked Jesus, “Lord, teach us to pray”, (Luke 11:1-4). We, too, look for ways to talk with God, and different seasons of life might call for different ways of praying. In our Advent Quiet Day, we will explore ways of praying – from walking meditations to breath prayers and writing – to help us find our own ways of connecting with the Divine. Join us at Good Shepherd on Saturday, December 9 at 9:30a-1:00p. Coffee and check-in beginning at 9:00a in the Education Center, Reflection Room. Lunch will be provided.
Register HERE.
