 Come to this one-night retreat June 17-18, hosted by the Charlotte Diocese at the Catholic Conference Center in Hickory, NC. Delve into the mysteries of the Eucharist and enrich your own life. Renew your spirit with a mix of Adoration, contemplation, and prayer, plus be encouraged by four meditations based on the verbs Jesus used during the last supper: taken, blessed, broken, and given. In each meditation, you’ll be invited to explore how Jesus applies the same verbs to your life. It’d be a great Father’s Day gift, or a gift-to-self on the day before the Feast of Corpus Christi.
