Day of Reflection on July 18: Our Journey to the Eucharist

 

The Diocesan Office for Parish Life will sponsor a Day of Reflection on the Holy Eucharist at the Fatima Renewal Center in Dalton.

Father James P. Dougher will serve as guest presenter for “Our Journey to the Eucharist,” a daylong reflection program to be offered Saturday, July 18, from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at Fatima.

The day will focus on one’s personal response to the Lord’s invitation to “come and rest awhile” before his Eucharistic presence. It will provide reflective time to move prayerfully into a deeper relationship with the Lord.

The reflection offering is especially recommended for those who serve as Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion in their respective parishes, as a means of being rejuvenated for service in the parish, to the sick and homebound.

Teachers in parish religious education programs, especially those who prepare children for the sacraments, would benefit from this day. It is also highly recommended for all persons desiring personal refreshment through prayer and reflection before the Eucharistic Lord.

The day of reflection includes celebration of Mass and the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Cost to attend the program is $30 and includes lunch.
