Capuchin Retreat
September 24-26

...a beautiful place to pray

Daily we are confronted with "bad news", either in our world, church, family or our own selves. We also have those "good days" when all seems great.

Where is God in our lives? Capuchin retreat offers a weekend for our parish on September 24-26 to take the time to find God in our daily lives and to learns ways to see God in all the events around and within us. Enjoy the quiet, the 95 acres of of beautiful grounds, a private room with a bath and 5 great meals, all for just $160.

A typical retreat weekend begins with orientation at 7:30 on Friday evening. Throughout the weekend, four conferences are given. Prayer experiences are led by staff members and liturgies are celebrated on Saturday and Sunday. Ample time is allotted for personal prayer, reflection, and rest. The Sacrament of Reconciliation is made available and a healing service is offered. There also is an optional 'sharing session' on Saturday evening. Staff members are also available for individual consultation with retreatants. The program concludes with a meal following the Sunday morning liturgy.
