January 25: “Comfort the Sorrowful” 
We begin our series of mini-retreats reflecting on the traditional seven “Spiritual Works of Mercy.” This evening our theme will be “Comforting the Sorrowful.” In this post-holiday, mid-winter time of year we may find ourselves dealing with the so-called “doldrums.” How can our spirits be uplifted in times of boredom, loss, and distress? Donation: $25.00
February 29: “Admonishing the Sinner”
“Admonishing the Sinner” is another spiritual work of mercy. We are both saint and sinner as we journey through life. As a consequence we need challenge, encouragement, and compassion in order to feel and to be a peace with the Lord. Presenter: Most Rev. John Barres, Bishop of Allentown, Pa. Donation: $25.00
March 21: “Forgiving Injuries”
One of our most difficult challenges is that of forgiving ourselves and others. Hurts are heavy burdens, and healing often comes slowly. “Forgiving Injuries” is the spiritual work of mercy we seek to understand and appreciate this evening. Donation: $25.00
