Facilitated by Terrance Fulton and Marcelle McGuirk (chair, Archbishop’s Commission on Racial Healing), these weekly gatherings are meant to be a space for reflection and sharing, as well as for learning how to engage in embodied prayer. Techniques explored will include breath-work and gentle movement.

Join us for a Lenten conversation series on cultivating peace and racial healing, guided by Bsp. Edward Braxton’s 2015 pastoral letter, The Racial Divide in the United States.
Facilitated by Marcelle McGuirk (chair, Archbishop’s Commission on Racial Healing), the conversation gatherings will discuss Bsp. Braxton’s text alongside other supplemental materials. Conversations will explore the historical wounds of the sin of racism, the response of Catholic Social Teaching, and our co-responsibility to cultivate peace and racial healing as a synodal, missionary Church.
Sessions will last about 90 minutes, and will take place on Zoom at 7pm on Thursdays in Lent.
Dates: Feb 19, Feb 26, Mar 5, Mar 12, Mar 19, Mar 26.
