Fr Sean Raftis

This retreat is now full for overnight accommodations!  We highly recommend our Palm Sunday Weekend Men's Silent Retreat, "Into the Passion"
led by Fr. Jim Lee (April 11-13).  


This is a traditional, silent, Lenten group retreat with large group conferences offering formation in faith. Time is provided for individual and communal prayer, spiritual reading, reflection, and devotions. Opportunities are also available for the celebration of the Eucharist and Reconciliation.
