Celebrating Religious Life in DioMO
Members of Religious Orders and Christian Communities in The Diocese of Missouri invite everyone to join them in celebrating Religious Life the weekend of January 19-21, 2024.
Overnight Retreat: Friday & Saturday, Jan. 19 & 20
The weekend begins with a retreat on Friday-Saturday January 19-20 at The Marianist Retreat Center, Wildwood/Eureka as an opportunity to experience community, worship, reflection and to explore the various charisms of Religious Orders and Communities in The Episcopal Church.
In the wonderfully peaceful setting of The Marianist Retreat Center we will follow the rhythms of daily prayer and experience what it is to be a modern-day Benedictine, Dominican, Franciscan as well as meet members of other Christian communities.
Come pray, sing, laugh and worship with us. A great way to start the new year!
