As we journey through Lent, we may find ourselves weary — struggling to maintain consistency in prayer, feeling distant from God, or carrying burdens that weigh heavily on our hearts. This gathering is a sacred pause, an opportunity to be renewed in spirit, deepen our trust in God, and find strength through prayer in community. We need the support of soul friends.
Good Friday Morning Retreat: “Behold The Lamb, Entering Into The Mystery of Sacrifice And Love”
When: Friday, April 18, 2025, 10 am – 12 pm EST
Where: Virtual Zoom Gathering, Replay link will be available
Contribution: $35
Registration: Required, Register Now
Good Friday is the darkest hour of humanity, yet the most profound act of love. It is the day when the weight of sin met the fullness of grace. Jesus bore the pain, the betrayal, and the loneliness of His humanity that we often feel. His sacrifice is not just a historical event but a personal invitation to surrender our brokenness at the foot of the cross.
This is the perfect way to prepare for the renewal and transformational impact of His Resurrection.
Through prayer, scripture, silence and song interwoven to engage your soul, you will connect with Jesus as never before.
