DAY RETREATS

Day retreats at Jesuit Retreat House provide a valuable opportunity to deepen one's relationship with the Lord through presentations, prayer, and quiet reflection.  During your retreat, you can walk our 57 acres of paved paths and visit the shrines along the way.  You can also enjoy the comfortable silence of our chapel and library.  Pastries and/or meals are included, with provisions depending upon the type and length of the retreat.

Following are upcoming Day Retreats listed by date.

June 2 - Day Retreat: Holy Ground
presented by
Fr. Carl Bonk, S.J.

In the Hebrew bible, "the land" is a frequently used image for where God and the Chosen People dwell together in peace and abundance of life. Many spiritual writers speak about the "landscapes of the soul." Place is, therefore, an important concept. It's where we physically live, but it is also a spiritual concept as well. We will explore our personal "holy ground" during this day retreat.  It begins with coffee & pastry at 9am, ends with liturgy by 2:30pm, and includes time for presentations, breaks, and lunch.  The cost is $22.
