Advent Retreat

December 4–December 5

Learning to Pray the Daily Office with Bishop Susan

December 4–5
Cost: $160 for a private room I $120 for a shared room

Join Bishop Susan for a retreat exploring the beauty and rhythm of the Daily Office. Using the Book of Common Prayer as a guide, Bishop Susan will teach participants how to read and pray the daily office, offering practical guidance for incorporating this time of prayer into everyday life.

Each participant will receive a copy of A User’s Guide to Morning and Evening Prayer: A User’s Guide to The Book of Common Prayer by Christopher L. Webber to
use as an additional resource for reading and praying the Daily Office. Through instruction, reflection, and time spent in prayer, this retreat offers an opportunity to grow in your understanding of this longstanding spiritual practice and develop a rhythm of prayer that can continue long after the retreat ends.

Whether you are new to the Daily Office or looking to deepen an existing practice, all are welcome to join us for this time of learning, fellowship, and spiritual renewal.

Date: December 4–5
