Rome: A Lenten Pilgrimage
__________________________________________________

The Churches and its Saints
led by Dom Brendan Thomas
3 Mornings in Lent 10am to 1pm: Wednesday 23rd & 30th March, 6th April
or online afterwards
There is an ancient tradition in Rome whereby the Churches themselves form part of the spiritual preparation for Easter. Each day pilgrims make their way to the different 'Station churches' for Mass, prayer and reflection.
For our online Lenten retreat this year, we will taste a little of that tradition by getting to know a few of the lesser-known churches of Rome, their stones and their saints, the buildings and the spiritual traditions they have nurtured. Join Dom Brendan, live from Rome, if you can!
