Ignatian Discernment Workshops Begin

**STARTS MAY 1st WEEKLY UNTIL JUNE 5th**
Wake up. Shower. Breakfast. Go to work or school. Come home. Dinner. Prepare for the next day. Sleep. Repeat.
Does that sound similar to your routine? Chances are, it does.
Let's face it, being a young adult in today's society is challenging. Our lives are busy, filled with the many demands of life from all directions. Sometimes it's hard to even figure out where to go from here. Slowing down and tuning in to silence and reflection sounds like a nice idea, but the opportunity just never seems to present itself.
Not until now.
