Recollections
A monthly recollection is like a mini-retreat. It is a time to stop and step back a little from our daily life, to renew our relationship with God and learn more about how to love others. It is an opportunity to reassess and renew our resolutions, to bring a fresh outlook to our life.
Recollections are two hours in length. They offer reflections led by a priest, a talk on some aspect of living a Christian life, Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, and time for confessions.
The spiritual and doctrinal activities sponsored by Headford Cultural Group are entrusted to Opus Dei, a part of the Catholic Church. The name is Latin for “Work of God”. Opus Dei’s mission is to spread the Christian message that every person is called to holiness and that every honest work can be sanctified.
