Women ages 19 to 99 and from all walks of life are invited to attend the “Waiting for Jesus with Mary” retreat, led by the Marian Sisters of the Diocese of Lincoln. Attendees are invited to embrace this time of rest, quiet, and renewal as they listen to the inspiring guidance of the Marian Sisters and deepen their faith journey.

The Advent-inspired retreat, scheduled for Dec. 5-7, offers a time of rest, reflection, and spiritual nourishment in the presence of Christ. The retreat aims to strengthen attendees’ intimacy with Jesus and renew their faith during this holy season.

Accompanied by a priest to support participants’ sacramental needs, the retreat will feature talks by the Marian Sisters, opportunities for confession, daily Holy Mass, time for prayer, and moments of silence for personal reflection. Designed to help women deepen their relationship with Christ, this retreat offers a unique opportunity for spiritual renewal with other faith-filled women.

Throughout the weekend, participants will be encouraged to take part in the sacraments and contemplative prayer, providing space to draw nearer to God.
