Presented by Maureen O’Brien

In this program we will pray, read Scripture, use Visio Divina, and listen to sacred songs that illuminate Pope Francis' words: "Whenever we take a step toward Jesus, we come to realize that he is already there, waiting for us with open arms." Together we will reflect and share on the mystery, beauty, and hope of the Cross, finding renewal as we share our longings and deepen our faith.
