Visio Divina, or “sacred seeing,” is an ancient form of Christian prayer in which we allow our hearts and imaginations to prayerfully and meditatively enter into an image. Join us for guided sessions of visio divina on the first Tuesday of every month with sacred art in the Mary, Queen of Families Chapel or in the galleries. This opportunity is a wonderful way to spiritually engage with works in the collection. Whether you are new to the practice of visio divina or a long-time devotee, all are welcome for a moment of peace, prayer, and meditation. https://raclinmurphymuseum.nd.edu/visit/events/2025/04/01/sacred-art-visio-divina-5/
