‘The Saints Within Us,’ annual Spring Lenten Retreat virtually

Have you ever stopped to think about Heaven, and that everyone who is in Heaven is a saint? We often think only about the canonized saints. But every one of us was created by God to be a saint!

The 2021 Lenten Retreat sponsored by the St. Cloud Diocesan Council of Catholic Women will be held Saturday, March 13. This will be a virtual webinar on “The Saints Within Us.” Registration can be done online by going to our website at http://stclouddccw.org. A confirmation email will be sent out immediately with a link to the retreat. No registration fee is required, but we ask for a free-will donation (see our website for details).

Our agenda starts at 9 a.m., and includes a guest speaker on “What Would St. Teresa do?,” a few personalized saint stories, a saint litany, a Q&A session on the saints with priests from the diocese, and concludes with a live-streamed mass at Sacred Heart in Sauk Rapids at 12:15 p.m. All are welcome.

Questions can be directed to Sheri Streasick at (320) 805-0010 or Linda Borgerding at (320) 293-1839, or by sending an email to stclouddiocesanccw@gmail.com.
