SUMMARY:Parish Mission with Father Ronald Hoye
DESCRIPTION:Our Lady of the Hills Parish in Columbia warmly invites everyone to a special Parish Mission with Vincentian priest Father Ronald Hoye on October 11 and 12 at 7:00 p.m.  \nThe theme of this mini retreat is ’Pray. Serve. Be Kind. Let Go.’.  Through stories\, Scripture\, humor\, reflection\, and prayer\, Father Ron will explore four fundamental pillars of a flourishing life in a wonderfully entertaining format that appeals to people of all ages. \nA parish mission is much like a spiritual revival. It is a chance to step away from the busyness of everyday life\, slow down and make time to reconnect with God. It offers an opportunity for spiritual refreshment\, renewal\, and a deeper relationship with Jesus. \nFather Hoye is a member of the Congregation of the Mission\, also known as the Vincentians. He has been leading parish missions for more than 15 years in parishes throughout the United States and Canada. His 50-minute presentations combine humor\, personal stories\, and spiritual reflection to create an experience that is engaging and meaningful for people of all ages. \nCome for an evening of faith\, laughter\, reflection\, and prayer —and discover what it means to Pray. Serve. Be Kind. Let Go.
