Weekend Retreat for Men & Women (not silent)
“THE BIG MIDDLE: Midlife as an Invitation to a Deeper Relationship with God, presented by Art Pingolt
November 14, 2025 @ 8:00 pm – November 16, 2025 @ 1:00 pm
THE BIG MIDDLE explores the nudges, limits and, at times, bewildering feelings of what we call “midlife” and makes a case for this being a time of invitation and discovery. Borrowing from the richest of Catholic mystics and present-day spiritual writers, THE BIG MIDDLE guides the participant through the questions of this time in ones life and explores how to establish a sustainable practice of a personal connection with God. Individuals in their 40s, 50s and 60s will find the retreat valuable but the content is also applicable to spiritual seekers both younger and older. Artie Pingolt will share his own midlife story, influenced by his own diverse background, as a husband and father, investment banker, missionary and student of Ignatian spirituality.

Silent Weekend Retreat for Men & Women
Autumn Triduum: Snapshots of Sanctity and Habits of Holiness – Presented by Fr. Joseph Nassal
October 31, 2025 @ 8:00 pm – November 2, 2025 @ 1:00 pm
When we look through the photo album of our faith, family, and community life, we see many snapshots of sanctity. Often those we call “saints” are no longer with us. Look closely at these holy cards, these pictures of priestly people, and you will see how they are all dressed in the garment of grace. Their habit is holiness. Trace the threads in these habits of holiness and you will see woven into the fabric of their lives the qualities described in the Beatitudes (Matthew 5, 1-12). This weekend when we celebrate All Hallows Eve, All Saints, and All Souls, we remember how it is God who makes us worthy to be saints by calling us children of God. When we take off our masks and deepen our desire to live as children of God now, we find sanctity is not for a chosen few but for all.
We invite you to bring pictures of those in your life whose holiness inspired you on your journey of faith.

Serenity (12-Step) Retreat for Men & Women
A Pilgrimage through the Doors of Hope – Presented by Ruth Hoenick
October 3, 2025 @ 8:00 pm – October 5, 2025 @ 1:00 pm
A pilgrimage is a spiritual journey. Retreatants will reflect on their pilgrimage through several doors. First, they will enter the door of looking within to see the hope for a new life. Secondly, stepping over the threshold and traveling with a Higher Power as a guide in recovery. Third, examining how to walk through transformation with self and others in hope rather than fear. Lastly, entering the door of exploration & hopes of our relationship with self, others and the God of our awareness. This weekend will focus on welcoming ALL: the unexpected, the challenges, and the blessings of a hopeful pilgrimage in recovery.

Pilgrims of Hope – Men’s Silent Weekend
September 26, 2025 @ 8:00 pm – September 28, 2025 @ 1:00 pm
…and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us. Romans 5:5
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.
