St. Raphael’s Guild will be hosting its first ever retreat Febrauary 2 - 4, 2024! The retreat will be Ignatius style with a Saint John Paul II theme. The retreat will be lead by Fr. Brian Fischer and entitled "Making Space for God".
Fr. Fischer is living as a hermit in Stillwater, and he provides spiritual direction to priests, particularly from the Archdiocese of St. Paul/MPLS.
This retreat will provide a much needed spiritual get-away, including:
-Insightful talks from a hermit and skilled spiritual director
-Dr. Peter Daly will also give a presentation
-Mass
-The opportunity for individual spiritual direction, adoration, and confession
-Social time for connecting and supporting each other as Catholics in health care
The retreat will be at Cragun’s resort, in a house on Gull Lake in the Brainerd area. In addition, a goal of the retreat is to help connect and support the Catholic health care community throughout the diocese (and the state), a long-time aim of our dear chaplain, Fr. Tony.
Cost:There will be a free will offering to help cover the cost of the meeting and lodging for the students.
