Lenten Bible Study: The True Presence: Prefigured in the Old Testament, Fulfilled in the New Testament

7:00pm - 8:00pm
Cost: $14.95
A journey through the Bible to find His True Presence…

In the fall of 2022, the compiler of this study was attending a silent Ignatian retreat when she felt the call from the Lord to begin a study on Jesus’ True Presence in the Eucharist. In June 2022, the National Eucharistic Revival had begun as a three-year process leading up to the Eucharistic Congress in 2024, and she felt that she could help contribute to this national revival with this study.

She took the opportunity to gather many Scripture passages, Saint quotes, and Catechism of the Catholic Church references to assemble a full picture of why we, as Catholics, truly believe that Jesus gave us His Body as true food and Blood as true drink.

Invite your friends, family, and parishioners to join you in this study, or journey through it alone. Either way, Jesus will be with you, guiding you, feeding you, on the way.

The study will be on Thursdays, beginning March 6 and ending April 10.

Theology Matters

11:00am - 12:30pm
Cost: Free
Theology Matters presents God’s People on the Move: Theology of Migration and Mission with guest speakers Dr. Aimee Hein (author of Theology in Motion: Migration, History, and Responsibility) and Columban Fathers Chris Saenz and Michael Hoban.

Starting with how our origin stories shape the way we address migration – the Israelites moving from Egypt to The Promised Land, the Puritans moving from England to the New World, or Americans moving west under Manifest Destiny – and how our belief in a providential God underpins our claims to the land, our guest speakers will bring us to 2025, when more than 120 million people across the globe have been forcibly displaced because of war, persecution, violence, and human rights violations.

Indeed, God’s people are on the move. And what are we, as God’s people to do?
Come and hear what a theologian and two missionary priests with decades of personal experience have to say about our responsibility to participate in the task of repairing relationships, restoring peace, and working for justice for our brothers and sisters.

Led by Father Thomas Leitner, OSB, the retreat begins Friday, March 28, at 7:30 p.m. to Sunday, March 30, after lunch.

THE CENTURION XIV Stations of the Cross

6:00pm - 7:00pm
Cost: Free
Both dramatic and devout, The Centurion XIV features the Centurion who pierced the side of Jesus on the cross.

Non-canonical sources have asserted his name – Longinus – and stories about him tell of his conversion, being evangelized by the Apostles, spreading the Good News himself, and eventually dying a martyr’s death.

The Centurion XIV imagines Longinus in a Roman prison with other followers of Christ. All are soon to die, and Longinus is asked to recall his memories and thoughts of The Way of the Cross to help pass their final hour.

Performer Karl Rohling portrays Longinus as a person of both strong faith and deep regrets whose witness inspires his listeners to enter the Passion, grow in faith and to contemplate their own regrets – and the unfailing mercy of Christ.

Astronomy and the Question for God

9:30am
This April 5-6 retreat features astronomer Father Christoph Gerhard, OSB, of the Muensterschwarzach Abbey in Germany. He is an astronomer and has authored several books on faith and astronomy.

For many of us, looking through a telescope into the “infinite” cosmos inevitably raises the question of a creator. But is there even a place for God in the universe? Do science and faith not contradict each other? We view the two as related to one another, offering different, complementary approaches to the one reality. During this weekend, we will not only focus on the practical use of telescopes but also consider biblical texts relating to creation and the universe.

The retreat concludes after lunch on Sunday, April 6.

Program fee: $70. Rooms per night: single occupancy $52, double $43 per person. Meals: breakfast $9, lunch $13.30, supper $12.30. Sales and lodging taxes are extra.

Theology Day: The Untapped Power of the Eucharist

11:00am - 3:00pm
Cost: Free
What does the Church’s traditional teaching on Eucharist mean to today’s Catholic? How can we enrich our understanding of how Christ is present in the sacrament?

Current surveys show that one in three Catholics today do not believe in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharistic elements at Mass.
Join Dr. Shawn Colberg for an exploration of the Church’s teaching on the Eucharist including the way it calls us to become Christ for one another and the world around us. Together we will reflect on Eucharistic
presence as sign, sacrament, and sacrifice as a way to renew our connection with Jesus in the sacrament. And we will explore the theology of the Eucharist and the amazing power of Eucharistic presence within the liturgy to renew and regenerate both the Church and the wider world.
This presentation orients us as Pilgrims of Hope in the 2025 Jubilee Year.
Registration is required. There is no cost for attending Theology Day.

Shawn Colberg, Ph.D., is Dean of the School of Theology and Seminary at Saint John’s University as well as Associate Professor of Theology in the Department of Theology at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University. He completed his Master of Divinity at Yale University Divinity School and earned a Ph.D. in theology from the University of Notre Dame.

Shawn recently published a book entitled "The Wayfarer’s End" (Catholic University of America Press) and is widely published in journals and edited volumes.
