On Saturday, April 6, Ss Mary and Michael Parish in Clearfield hosted a Lenten retreat entitled "Koinonia: Cultivating Christ's Presence in Our Churches and Lives," led by Orthodox author and psychologist, Dr. Albert Rossi. The retreat took place at St. Michael’s in Irvona, and began and ended with worship (a Memorial Divine Liturgy and Great Vespers, respectively). Dr. Rossi led two keynote sessions interspersed with opportunities for good food and fellowship. Interactive activities connected the retreat’s theme with our current and future parish life.
