2-DAY weekend Women’s RETREATS
This silent retreat is a weekend with Jesus to begin or deepen a living relationship with Christ. It is geared to those with less experience in prayer and the spiritual life and is open to anyone. The retreat will include preached meditations, time for silence, personal prayer, the opportunity for spiritual direction, and the sacraments. The overarching theme of the retreat is taken from Isaiah: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are mine” (Isa: 43:1).
“A Weekend Away with Jesus” was created especially for you as a place of focused simplicity.
Relaxation
For women who experience being stressed-out, overwhelmed, overworked, tired, and under-nurtured, this retreat ensures that you’ll get time to relax and recharge.
Meditation
You will experience Gospel-focused meditations that will enliven your soul, deepen your relationship with Jesus, and help you discover more of who you are in Him.
Clarity
Explore what’s next on your personal and spiritual journey. Spending time in prayer will help you see, with more clarity, the path where you’ll discover your purpose.
You’ll leave refreshed, inspired, and connected. The Holy Spirit guided you here. Can you hear your heart saying: “YES!”? Claim your seat with Jesus!
