Women of Hope
Women's Day Retreat
Tuesday, March 24, 2026
Sr. Sally Hodgdon, C.S.J.
10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. – In-Person Only
Pope Francis called all of us to become "Pilgrims of Hope," during the 2025 Jubilee Year. We will reflect on the importance of hope as a gift from God that sustains us through life's journey. As women, we are naturally inclined to create tapestries of hope and unconsciously we share and receive various threads of hope through our relationships with others.
This program will be offered in-person only.
Offering $50, includes lunch
