FAQs
How much does the retreat cost?
Nothing. This retreat is completely free!
How many days does the retreat last?
A retreat weekend includes Friday evening, Saturday all day, Sunday all day, and Monday evening. Conversion doesn’t happen overnight, it takes time. The retreat is designed to patiently guide the retreatants through the kerygma, and gives them time to respond to what the Lord is doing in their hearts.
Do the retreatants have to attend the entire retreat, or can they miss parts of it?
Retreatants need to stay for the entire retreat. If they need to miss part of the retreat, simply recommend that they attend the next retreat.
Isn’t four days too long for most retreatants to attend?
The retreat isn’t really four full days, it’s two full days and two evenings. It works around people’s work schedules, and they are able to go home at a reasonable time each evening to sleep in their own beds. Most importantly though, the retreat is worth the investment. Once people attend the retreat, they don’t regret the time spent.
How do parents with young children attend?
One suggestion is for the parents to attend separate retreats. Also, you could have another young couple “switch off” with them. In other words, one of the couples would attend a retreat while the other couple watches their kids. Then, for the next retreat, they would switch.
