Catholic Retreat For Women – Spring 2024

“May we try to listen and be silent in order to make space for the beauty of God”  `Pope Francis

Come away from the busyness of life for a silent retreat based on the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola.

Amid the peaceful, beautiful surroundings of the Marytown Retreat Center and National Shrine of St. Maximilian Kolbe, you will have the refreshing opportunity to pray, to learn about yourself, to deepen your knowledge of the Scriptures and the Catholic faith, to seek God’s will for your life, and to experience the tremendous, personal love that Jesus Christ has for you.

Our Retreat Master will be Fr. Andrew Kolenda, LC
