This evening is a unique Lenten retreat experience - not a replay of the Shroud talks you may have heard before.

We will approach the Shroud of Turin as the star witness of the Resurrection, lingering reverently at the price of the Passion and then turning toward the moment when the light of the Resurrection breaks into the darkness. We will contemplate what that light means not only for then, but for now: how the Risen Christ still draws near, still speaks, still heals, and still invites us into communion. This is meant to awaken wonder, stir holy curiosity, and kindle Real hope. The night will culminate in a Living Encounter with Christ in the Real Presence through Eucharistic Adoration and Benediction - a quiet, awe-filled space to come to the feet of Jesus and respond.
