Our Deepest Longing: A Young<br />
Adult Call to Community<br />
Colin Petramale and Patrick Laorden<br />
1:00 TO 9:00 P.M.<br />
What is it that we long for? We have all asked<br />
this question at some point in our lives, and<br />
it seems even more important in this rapidly<br />
changing world. Come join a vibrant group of<br />
young adults to explore this question of longing.<br />
We will examine how our longing affects our<br />
lives in community, and how our longings can be<br />
used for the most good for ourselves and others.<br />
Mass and dinner included. Offering: $40<br />

Advent Reflection<br />
There Is a Longing: Hearing the<br />
Whispers of Advent<br />
Fr. David Cinquegrani, C.P.<br />
DAY RETREAT: 10:00 A.M. TO 2:00 P.M.<br />
EVENING RETREAT: 6:00 TO 9:00 P.M.<br />
Each of us has a longing in our hearts to<br />
encounter the presence of God in one form<br />
or another, to uncover and grasp what Ronald<br />
Rolheiser calls “the secret worth knowing.”<br />
Advent is not simply a time to get ready for<br />
Christmas; it’s the time for Christians to prepare<br />
their hearts and minds for the revelation of the<br />
Divine and to accept God’s indwelling in every<br />
moment. Join Fr. David in exploring our deep<br />
longing for the Savior, Emmanuel—among us<br />
and within us. The day program includes the<br />
Sacrament of Reconciliation. Both programs<br />
include Mass. Offering: $40 (includes meal)<br />
