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.

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

The year 2025 has been proclaimed a Jubilee Year by Pope Francis, the chief shepherd of the flock.  This will be 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.
