On St. Patrick’s Day, AFIRE Ministries invites you to enter more deeply into the Lenten journey through prayer and reflection on the witness of Venerable Matt Talbot.

Born in Dublin, Matt Talbot experienced a profound conversion that led him from addiction to a life marked by prayer, fasting, simplicity, and generosity. His quiet faith continues to inspire those seeking healing and a deeper relationship with God.

This online gathering begins with Vespers (Evening Prayer), creating a shared space of stillness before God. A brief mini retreat will follow, reflecting on how Matt Talbot’s life embodies the heart of Lent — a path of returning, surrender, and grace.

Whether you join for Vespers, the mini retreat, or both, you are welcome.

All are welcome.

There is no cost to attend. Donations are welcomed and support the mission of AFIRE Ministries.
