Young adults ages 21 to 35 are invited to take a break from the bustle of the Christmas season for an Advent Night of Recollection on Saturday, Dec. 5, from 7 to 10 p.m. at St. Peter’s Catholic Church on Capitol Hill in Washington.
Hosted by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Washington’s Office of Youth and Young Adult Ministry, the evening will center on the question, “What does Advent teach us about the heart of God?”
The gathering will offer participants an opportunity for prayer and reflection as they prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ. The program will include Eucharistic Adoration, a guided meditation and opportunities to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
Following the prayer portion of the evening, attendees are invited to enjoy fellowship over wine, cheese and hors d’oeuvres.
The event will take place at St. Peter’s Catholic Church, 313 Second St. S.E., Washington, D.C.
Registration is required by Sunday, Nov. 29. Young adults interested in attending should register online. For more information, go to: https://adw.org/event/advent-night-of-recollection/
