The Ladies of the Shield Lenten Retreat was held Saturday, February 27th in the James B. Branton Chapel.
A special thanks to our retreat leader Sister Judith Gomila, MSC, a Marianite Sister of Holy Cross and our celebrant Father John Payne from St. Gabriel the Archangel.
Sr. Judy, a dynamic speaker, spoke to the ladies in attendance about – The Power of One ~ Eph. 1:15-23 ~ One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism.
One size fits all, an empowering teacher, one bread/one body,… we have all experienced the power of one. At times we deny or forget the power of grace that is ours as the holy and beloved of God. Let’s take a closer look at the one, God/Man, Jesus; the one Church led by Pope Francis; and the one baptized, YOU, called to put your faith into action.
We would also like to thank Elsa Hodges, Cissy Yakelis, Bro. Louis Couvillon, Tony Melito, and Tina Labeaud.
