A Lenten retreat
This retreat during Lent will allow us to pause to reflect and better understand our relationship with food, to experience how God's Word satisfies our hunger, and how frugality and temperance are simple yet powerful means to grow in our spiritual life.
Fasting, strictly speaking, is not practiced during this retreat.
