Living the Spirituality of Mary
With Maureen OBrien
May 16 - 18, 2025
This weekend retreat will deepen your connection to the Blessed Mother, receiving her love as you contemplate how her visual and holy presence fills the island and leads you to her Son. You will consider scripture (the Magnificat, the Annunciation, the Visitation, the Passion) as you encounter her in this May abundance, and pondering her names in this setting–Mystical Rose, Star of the Sea–you will discover fresh pathways to her in your heart.
Sessions will allow for connection and sharing, the Mysteries of the Rosary, journaling, and contemplative movement around the island with Our Lady of Fatima, Our Lady of Lourdes, and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Check-in is at 4:30 PM on Friday, and the weekend will conclude on Sunday at 11:00 AM.
