Oasis Day: Preparing for Advent - 12 Dec
Step aside from the ordinary and the busy into the lovely surroundings of Manresa for an Advent Oasis Day. Each day helps to prepare for Christmas by considering themes like waiting, humility, patience, openness, growth and transformation. The day takes place in an atmosphere of silence and comprises a number of elements: reflections, guided meditations, prayer, Scripture, celebration of the sacraments of Reconciliation and the Eucharist and an opportunity to meet with a spiritual director.
