Weekend Retreats are held throughout the year, drawing from different communities and parishes. Individuals are welcomed and encouraged to make a retreat any time.

Retreats are an opportunity for women to set aside time for themselves and experience their God. This personal invitation is unique for each woman.

Women of all ages and walks of life are welcome. While each retreat has a schedule that helps participants to focus on a central theme, retreatants participate only as much as they choose.  No one is required to attend all the events scheduled during a retreat.

The weekend includes presentations, prayer circles, opportunities for private conferences with a retreat team member, and plenty of free time for personal prayer or rest.  A priest is available each weekend for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist.

Rooms are either private or shared, at your request. Bed linens and towels are provided; please remember to bring personal toiletries–since most bathrooms are shared, you may also want to bring a bathrobe. If the weather permits, you may want to spend time outdoors, so feel free to bring your walking shoes. Many women find they want a journal to record personal reflections; while we offer them for sale in our gift shop, you may want to pack a favorite of your own.

Therapeutic massage is available during Preached Weekends. Appointments of one-hour are $60, payable in advance with your registration.
