When Silence Speaks: A Day of Renewal with Father Pio

Psalm 62 reminds us, “For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation.” Often in our busy and noisy world we struggle to hear God’s voice. Join Father Pio Mandato, FMHJ for this Day of Renewal and learn how to listen and respond more attentively to the quiet voice of God speaking to your heart. There is no cost to attend this Day of Renewal; however, it is a ticketed event. Registration opens on August 1st. Bring your own packed lunch or pre-order and pre-pay $20.00 for a boxed lunch when registering for your ticket online. Lunch options are a chicken Caesar wrap or ham & American cheese with lettuce & tomato, apple, chips, cookie, and bottled water. The deadline to order lunch is September 1st.
