Lenten Visio Divina

Lenten Visio Divina, April 17

April 12, 2019

Campus Ministry and the Garaventa Center invite you to join with others for Lenten Visio Divina on Wednesday, April 17, during Holy Week, from 12:35-1 p.m., following noon Mass in the Chapel of Christ the Teacher. Visio Divina is an ancient form of Christian prayer in which we allow our hearts and imaginations to enter into a sacred image, in silence, to see what God might have to say to us. Our meditation will focus on an illumination from The Saint John’s Bible.
