Current Retreat Theme

“Pilgrims of Hope”

2025 Retreats

The year 2025 is a Jubilee Year as proclaimed by Pope Francis, the chief shepherd of the flock. This is a Holy Year, and a time of special grace for the church. Following the lead of our shepherd, the theme of our retreats is the same as the theme for this Holy Year, when we are called to be Pilgrims of Hope.

For many, when they hear the word Hope they think of a fond wish. When Christians hear the word Hope we think of a firm promise. As St. Paul proclaims in his letter to the Romans, Hope does not disappoint. Our hope is in the person of Jesus Christ who has laid down his life and conquered sin and death. This hope is poured into our hearts through the gift of the Holy Spirit.

We invite you to come to Christ the King during this time of grace to affirm your belief in the hope that can make sense of a hopeless world. 

Our Retreat Format includes: Celebration of the Eucharist; Reconciliation, Conferences, Scriptural Rosary, Healing Service (includes Anointing of the Sick), Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, Silent Time, Opportunity for Individual Spiritual Direction.

Oblates Motto

“He has sent me to bring Good News to the Poor...The Poor have heard the Good News”

The spirit of St. Eugene is inspired by Isaiah 61:1.

Christ the King Retreat Center is a ministry of our community, The Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate. We are the eleventh largest order of religious men in the Roman Catholic Church with over 3,800 priests and brothers serving in 68 countries.

Christ the King Retreat Center is one of four major retreat centers that we operate in the United States. Wherever we are, our mission is to bring the Good News of Jesus Christ to those who have had the least opportunity to hear it.

Our community was founded in 1826 in Aix en Provence, France, by St. Eugene de Mazenod. He has been called the patron of dysfunctional families.
