About the event
What if one weekend could change the way you experience your everyday life?
Step away from the demands of daily life and make space for what matters most. Join the women of Holy Spirit for a weekend of prayer, worship, reflection, and renewal as we seek to encounter Christ and be renewed in the Holy Spirit. (Note: this retreat is not overnight).
Starting Friday afternoon and returning Saturday, we'll spend time listening for the Lord's voice and opening our hearts to His work in our lives. Inspired by the bold wisdom of St. Catherine of Siena, you'll discover practical ways to overcome the daily obstacles that keep you from loving God, loving others, and living with greater freedom, peace, and purpose.
We're honored to welcome Joan Watson as our retreat speaker. A nationally recognized Catholic author, speaker, and retreat leader, Joan is known for presenting the Catholic faith with clarity, authenticity, and joy. Through her engaging teaching and practical insights, she'll encourage us to embrace God's call to holiness in the midst of everyday life.
Whether this is your first retreat or one of many, you'll find a welcoming place to pause, pray, and allow the Holy Spirit to renew your heart. Come expecting to encounter Christ, deepen your faith, and return home refreshed for the journey ahead.
