This retreat day will open the treasures and teachings of some holy women and men who have gone before us. We stand on the shoulders of giants who offer us practical, down-to- earth wisdom for the spiritual journey

Take a day to pause and reflect upon the call of the Lord. A Day of Recollection provides a quiet moment of prayer in our busy lives. Make some time for yourself and God, share good food, company, and a quiet place to reflect and appreciate your faith. 

The day will begin with Mass at 9 am in The Chapel of Our Lady of the Assumption.

From there, please follow the signs to our Registration area. Coffee, tea, and pastries are available before the start of the first conference at 10:30 AM. Included in this day is a hot lunch. This will be served at 12:30 in the dining hall of the Enders House, an early 20th century arts and crafts style mansion and the oldest structure on the island.
