A Weekend of Renewal
Christ our Savior is offering you a chance to respond to a closer and deeper relationship with him. Sacraments are the focal point of the weekend and we are blessed to participate in Eucharistic Adoration, Mass and, if you wish, Reconciliation.
Christ Renews His Parish (CRHP) usually pronounced as “CHIRP” is a process designed to bring members of a parish together in Christ. It stresses clear focus on the Gospel, the Good News of Jesus Christ. This process emphasizes continued growth in Christian life and in our daily contacts with others. At St. Elizabeth Seton we have both, a men’s and women’s CRHP process.
The process begins with what is called a renewal weekend. This weekend can be a spiritual experience that will make a lasting difference in your life. The renewal weekend is given for parishioners by parishioners. The retreat team has been trained and formed over the past year to be prepared to share with you. This is an opportunity to hear and discuss how we live as Catholics in our modern, complex society. It is an occasion for individual spiritual growth achieved through prayer and person al reflection. You may share your faith stories (as much or as little as you want) with others in the parish who are as challenged as you are with the many demands of daily life. Sacraments are the focal point of the weekend and we are blessed to participate in Eucharistic Adoration, Mass and if you wish, Reconciliation.
Come, take time out of your busy life to meet with and get to know others in the parish. The fact is, there are many other parishioners who share the same hopes and desires, doubts and fears, which challenge you.
CRHP offers separate weekends for both men and women.
