A two-hour “retreat” called “Discovering God in the Ordinary” will be held in late November and early December in nine locations around the state. The retreats will be hosted by the Diocese of Little Rock and presented by staff members from Renew International, which produces the Why Catholic? program.
All Catholics are invited to attend the retreat even if they haven’t attended Why Catholic? adult faith formation sessions this fall.
Sister Honora Nolty, OP, will lead the sessions in English while Alma Garcia will present the Spanish sessions. Each location will offer separate sessions in English and Spanish unless otherwise noted.
