The retreats are held twice a year at our Parish: once in the Spring and once in the Fall. The schedule begins on Friday evening, and continues through Monday evening. After each day, the participants return home, and return the following day. The retreat is presented by fellow parishioners, with the support and assistance of our priests. During the retreat, participants will have time for prayer, adoration and small group discussions. Prayerfully consider coming to the next retreat.
