Ever Ancient, Ever New:
Lenten Practices for Our Modern Times

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.   

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 a single program, or register for the entire three-part series. Registration is $20 per session or $50 for the entire series.

Join in from wherever you live, as all sessions are available for in-person or online attendance.

All sessions will take place in the first-floor conference room of St. Francis Center
at Monocacy Manor, 395 Bridle Path Road, Bethlehem PA 18017.
