Praying With The Gospel of John

This eight-week retreat and course of study will provide an overview of the Gospel of John and introduce participants to its major themes.  These will be the starting points for our prayer during Lent, Holy Week and Easter Week. The Fourth Gospel is at the heart of the “Johannine spirituality” lived by the Brothers of the Society of St John the Evangelist. It is a spirituality of love and intimacy, of abiding in Jesus and in the Father, of laying down of one’s life in service of others, of being sent into the world to reveal God ‘s love to those who don’t yet know it, and of witnessing to what we have seen and heard so that others may find the joy and love that God so wants to give them.
