AVA’S GRACE RETREAT FOR COUPLES WHO HAVE SUFFERED MISCARRIAGE, STILLBIRTH, OR INFANT LOSS
If you have lost a baby before or after birth, you are not alone. Come join others who have suffered miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss for a daylong retreat, free of charge, to help face your grief in the context of fellowship and faith. The retreat will be held on Saturday, March 25, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Sacred Heart Parish Center on the campus of Notre Dame. The retreat will include Mass for the feast of the Annunciation, a witness talk by John and Mary O’Callaghan, small group discussion, couple conversation, Eucharistic Adoration, and a pilgrimage to the Grotto. Lunch will be provided. While this retreat is geared for couples, individuals are welcome as well. Sponsored by diocesan Marriage & Family Ministry. To register, contact Lisa Everett at leverett@diocesefwsb.org or by calling 574-234-0687.
