The Footprints of God

 

A Retreat for Lent

 

Church of Christ the King, Strathroy


Monday Evenings - 8 – 9 pm


(Tea, coffee served at the end of each evening)

 

Each Monday evening of Lent (beginning on Monday before Ash Wednesday), we will journey reflectively with Jesus as he makes his way to Jerusalem.

 

As we reflect on the journey Jesus took to Jerusalem, where he suffered and died for us, we grow in an understanding of the journey of our own lives and find nourishment and guidance for our pilgrimage through life.

 

... Join us as we walk in the Footprints of God …
