STELLA NIAGARA — The Western New York community is invited to begin the Lenten season by participating in an enjoyable, values-based Ash Wednesday retreat-workshop at Stella Niagara’s Center of Renewal. The day will begin with check-in and morning coffee from 8:30-8:55 a.m., with the retreat from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Lunch will also be provided.

Facilitated by Nancy P. Askins, Ph.D., executive director of the Center of Renewal, the retreat will include discussions, music, contemplative time, and reflective values-based activities designed to help retreatants prepare to enter the sacred six weeks of Lent in a meaningful manner.
