The School Sisters of St. Francis are pleased to present Ever Ancient, Ever New: Lenten Practices for Our Modern Times, a trio of programs that will lend contemporary relevance to the traditional Lenten practices of prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Join us as, together, we deepen our understanding of these age-old practices and discover meaningful, impactful actions in service to God’s people and all of creation.   

In this first installment — Exploring Lent Beyond ‘No Chocolate’ — we will examine prayer, fasting, almsgiving and conversion for individual growth and the common good. Sister Bonnie Marie Kleinschuster and Maryann Kearns, Laudato Si’ animator, will lead the discussion.

Attend in person at Monocacy Manor in Bethlehem, Pa., or from wherever you are via Zoom. Either way, you will have an opportunity to learn, share and reflect in a supportive community of our Sisters and friends. Select just this program, or register for the entire three-part series. Registration is $20 per session or $50 for the entire series.

Those attending in person will gather in the first-floor conference room of St. Francis Center at Monocacy Manor.
