Experience the peace and tranquility of a quiet time of prayer, get some practical advice on how to live your faith and make a resolution or two to improve in a certain area of your life.
An evening of recollection is a mini-retreat that lasts about two hours. It includes a meditation preached by a priest of Opus Dei, a practical talk by a layman, Benediction with the Blessed Sacrament, and time for prayer and personal examination. Priests will be available for Confession.
The recollection takes place on the first Tuesday of each month (except when otherwise stated) at Murray Hill Conference Center, 139 E34th Street, NY, NY 10019.
