free at-home retreats
A retreat is an opportunity to draw away from the world for intentional time of prayer and reflection. In our web-based retreats, you decide when and where you pray. It’s all online and free all the time! You don’t need to finish in one sitting—just remember where you left off and come back to it. Grab a journal and your favorite pen, and let’s begin.
After he called St. Matthew the Apostle, Jesus gave this piece of advice to the Pharisees: "Go and learn the meaning of the words, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’” (Matthew 9:12) In this retreat, we will learn more about mercy, not just to better understand God, but to grow in lovingly trust of our Heavenly Father.
Every year during Holy Week, we enter into the greatest mystery of our faith. With this retreat, rediscover the scriptures pointing us to the full plan of our redemption. Listen as youth ministers from around the diocese share their reflections, and experience anew the glory of God at Easter.
In the current climate, this retreat, “Peace in Pandemic Times,” focuses on regaining a sense of God’s presence in the midst of turmoil and distress. It includes scripture study and a Litany of Trust. This retreat was designed for teachers in our Catholic schools, but it is available for all.
