Open to all adults (men and women 18+), the goal of the retreat is for people to learn Who Jesus Christ truly is and to grow into an intimate relationship with Him – a relationship that is endlessly deep. We believe that Jesus, in the Eucharist, is the source and summit of our Faith, and through this retreat, we will welcome this same Jesus into our hearts – just as He has invited us into His.
Starting Saturday morning, the retreat flows with talks and witnesses reflecting on the attributes and desires of Jesus’ heart. There will be table discussions after each talk/witness session, as well as time for reflection. Reconciliation will be available on Saturday night. Sunday continues the intimacy of Jesus working in our lives through additional sessions and discussions. The retreat closes with the celebration of the Eucharist on Sunday afternoon. The retreat hours are Saturday, October 26th, 9am -9pm, and Sunday, October 27th, 9am to closing mass beginning at 2:30pm.
Over 50 adults attended the St. Mary’s retreat in 2018.
This year we are seeking His heart on all matters that focus on the healing of the body, mind, soul and spirit. New retreat topics this year include the Kingdom of God, the taming of the tongue, suffering, right relationships and physical healing.
