The Saints: They've Got You Surrounded
November 5-7, 2021  

Leader: Sister Marlene Milasus, OSB

Those who have gone before us in faith are really very much with us, helping, encouraging, interceding, and inspiring.  Spend some time getting to know these friends more deeply -- both the official “capital-S” Saints of the Church and the “small-s saints” who have in some way influenced our lives.  

*There is a $35 fee for day retreat conferences. Registration is required.
