At the heart of the teaching of Jesus is the Sermon on the Mount. At the heart of the Sermon on the Mount are the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:3-12). Jesus asks that we see the world in a new way where weakness is strength and poverty is wealth. During our 2026 retreats, we will seek to embrace this challenging vision.
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; Also includes 2 nights’ private room and 5 meals.

We hope this finds you well. Lent begins next week with Ash Wednesday.
Our last Men’s Silent retreat is on March 13-15 and there are quite a few spots available. Please register online soon to make sure you have a spot.
We have confirmed that Fr. Matt Linn will be here for the July 17-19 retreat. He contacted us recently to discuss a new title that includes Hope and Kindness in a world that is angry. We encourage you to make plans to attend this retreat.
Fr. Rolheiser and Fr. Charlie have not yet sent us the topic of their retreats, but we are excited to have them with us this August as usual.
Susan Stabile will join us in November, instead of her usual Advent retreat. We are very much looking forward to having her with us as well.
As always, our prayer basket is in front of the altar and we remember the prayers that it contains during our daily Mass. Please send us your prayer requests and we’ll make sure they are added.
Please contact me or Connie in the office if you have any questions. We will be praying for you during your Lenten journey.
Have a very blessed day,
Anita Goth, Retreat Coordinator

“Keeping Christ Incarnate: The Stunning Implications of the Incarnation”
God didn’t come to earth in the flesh for just 33 years. Christ didn’t leave us when he ascended into heaven. We, the Christian community, continue the incarnation. We are the Body of Christ. We do not represent Christ, replace Christ, or become only his mystical body. We ARE the Body of Christ and we continue to give physical flesh to God. This has astonishing implications for how we pray, seek healing, look for guidance, understand religious experience, and for how we “bind and loose” our loved ones. A look at the concept of the Incarnation and its astonishing implications.
