Lenten Quiet Day
Don't forget to register for tomorrow's virtual Lenten Quiet Day. The Spiritual Life Guild is excited to offer this day of prayer and reflection facilitated by The Rev. Matthew Wright, CRC from St. Gregory’s Episcopal Church in Woodstock, NY.

The Rev. Wright is a well-regarded retreat facilitator and up and coming leader in the contemporary contemplative world. He is a former student resident at The Chapel of the Cross and we are thrilled to be able to welcome him back to our community. The Rev. Wright’s topic for the day will be, "Entering the Heart of Christ: Christianity as Participatory Mystery." 

There are a handful of slots available, register here and join us!
