A weekend retreat for young adults aged 18-35 wishing to look in-depth at the Catholic understanding of the human person and God’s plan for love, especially looking at practical ways in which we can grow in maturity as Christian men and women.
Experiencing the Father’s love in the reality of our being, we can open ourselves to developing healthy relationships, learning to receive and give love in a chaste manner and according to our particular state in life, whatever that may be.
“Sexuality affects all aspects of the human person in the unity of his body and soul. It especially concerns our affectivity, the capacity to love and to procreate, and in a more general way the aptitude for forming bonds of communion with others.” CCC 2332
Join others in asking the questions needed to live a consciously chaste / celibate life. Personal accompaniment from one of the sisters is also available upon request.
