Reconnect with the Holy: An 8-Day Retreat for Women

Center for Spiritual Development and Mission San Luis Rey are partnering to offer a women’s spiritual retreat. The retreat will be held at Mission San Luis Rey in Oceanside while staff from the Center for Spiritual Development will serve as spiritual directors.

All women are welcome! Vowed religious and lay women who feel called to be in the silence with God are invited to join us for 8 days of quiet and daily spiritual direction. Daily Mass, Taizé prayer, a reconciliation service and healing service will also be offered during the week. Fr. Michael Guinan, OFM, will preside at daily Mass. The grounds include peaceful walking paths, a swimming pool, a beautiful rose garden, St. Clare Chapel, Stations of the Cross, a labyrinth, and the beautiful sounds of nature.

Who should come?

• Religious and lay women who desire to deepen their faith.
