Come Back to Me with All Your Heart: The Prophet Hosea and the Desert Harlots (Sharon Doran, MA)


Among the most poetic books in the Old Testament is the treasure of the Prophet Hosea, “come back to me with all your heart.” The Lord’s precious bride Israel has become a rebellious and unfaithful spouse, but the Divine Bridegroom desires reconciliation and reunion with his fallen love. Explore the Lord’s tender mercy and desire for reunion as we also explore some of the Desert Harlots of early Christianity. Who doesn’t love a story of conversion from extreme sinfulness to extreme holiness? Get to know Mary of Egypt, and several others. Conclude your Lenten journey with Hosea and the Desert Harlots who became Saints. Retreat concludes with the Sacrament of Reconciliation during the hour of Divine Mercy on Saturday.
