Women’s Silent Weekend Retreat: “Gospel Characters”

“Among all the Scriptures, even those of the New Testament, the Gospels have a special preeminence, and rightly so, for they are the principal witness for the life and teaching of the incarnate Word, our Savior.”

— Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation, Paragraph 18.

When we read the gospels, the good news of God’s salvation as revealed by Jesus Christ, we tend to focus on Jesus’ teachings and actions. We want Jesus to shape our lives so that we can live most fully aligned with God’s will. That makes us good disciples and followers of Jesus.

Yet another way we can strengthen our discipleship is to notice the other characters in the gospel stories and see how God works in and through them. How do they receive their call from Christ? How do they respond to it? What happens after these characters have a personal encounter with Jesus? How does their discipleship affect their families and communities? What allows them face ridicule and danger with faith?

Join us as we delve into the stories of those whose lives were linked to Jesus Christ in the Gospel. If by their connection to Jesus, they experienced transformation, conversion, and strength in their faith, so can we!

Religious Sisters Retreat: In the Footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi

Dear sister in Christ,

Our theme for the 2023-24 season is: “In the Footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi.” By delving into our Franciscan tradition, we will unravel the life of St. Francis and explore key events in his conversion and ministry. Through his life, the weekend retreat will be an opportunity for you to know St. Francis more deeply and to recognize those moments of grace in your own life as a consecrated woman. This weekend will help deepen your awareness of God’s loving presence and embrace the Gospel with evermore joy.

There will be opportunities for silent reflection, preached talks on St. Francis, one-on-one spiritual dialogue with the preachers, Mass, Eucharistic adoration, confession, healing service, and strolls in the beautiful God’s creation.

Please join us at Capuchin Retreat Center so that we can journey with St Francis and learn to love God as he loved God. A suggested donation of $650 is recommended. A $100 nonrefundable deposit secures your spot at the retreat. Please reach out to us if you have any questions. We hope to see you at this retreat. God bless.

Peace & all good,

The Capuchin Friars and the staff
