BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD (psalm 46:10) Retreat August 27th Jubilee Room 9am – noon Nothing is more important that spending time with God. In today’s world, nothing is more difficult. We need to unplug from the distractions and the noise of daily living. We need time for our soul to relax and unwind. Come spend some time with the one who loves you at this silent retreat on Mary’s Assumption into Heaven. The Blessed Virgin Mary led a life full of suffering. But she never let that suffering obscure her faith in God. She always stayed faithful to God, because she knew that God is faithful and trustworthy, even though she didn’t always understand everything God was doing. The morning begins with reflections from Fr. John Bartunek, LC via DVD with periods of silence for personal prayer and reflection and concludes with a Holy Hour of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. No fee or registration. For further information please call Coleen 902 742-4924 or Helen 902 742-6216 Our sympathy is extended to the families and friends of Joseph Henry Muise, F. “Freddie” Joseph Doucette and John David Nause. ETERNAL REST GRANT UNTO THEM O LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON LORD AND THEM.
