LUC Lenten Retreat -- Sloatsburg, NY

Dear Pastors, All Faithful, LUC Members and Friends:

In this Year of Faith, the League of Ukrainian Catholics, continues its religious purpose, to promote personal sanctification and it invites all parishioners, families, friends and anyone looking to spend time in prayer during the Great Fast, to come and participate in this our Annual Lenten Retreat scheduled for the week end of March 15, 16, 17, 2013 being held at St. Mary’s Villa Retreat and Education Center, Sloatsburg, NY.

This year the theme being presented is “Journey of Bread – Transformed and Deified”.  Take a kernel of corn or any single grain in your hand. Imagine the phenomenal difference between this and a field ready for harvest.  It’s just a shadow of how Our Lord Jesus, through the Heavenly King, desires to transform, yes divinize us in His Holy Mysteries.  We will embark on that journey of divinization during this retreat. Glorify God. This retreat is open to anyone who feels the need to spend some time away from their everyday activity in prayer and reflection.

Our retreat master comes to us from Buffalo, New York.  Rev. Czelaw Michal Krysa, SLD, is a priest of the Diocese of Buffalo where he presently teaches at Christ the King Seminary in East Aurora, NY, directs the Buffalo Diocesan Office of Divine Worship and is Rector of the Church of St. Casimir in Kaisertown, (Buffalo), NY.  Fr. Krysa has received bi-ritual faculties under the Eparch of Stamford, CT.

The cost is $175 per person, which covers the cost of lodging for Friday night through Sunday and meals and snacks for Saturday and Sunday.  REMEMBER: NO MEAL WILL BE PROVIDED ON FRIDAY EVENING.

DEADLINE:   MARCH 11,  2013
