MEN'S EMMAUS RETREAT
April 16-18, 2027
You are invited to a retreat experience for and by the men of your parish community. The retreat is based on The Appearance on the Road to Emmaus as found in Luke 24:13-35.
The retreat will be held at St. Leo Abbey Retreat Center in St. Leo, Florida. More information on the St. Leo Abbey Retreat Center can be found here.
Jesus models the importance and need for prayer and solitude - the need for rest and renewal. The Emmaus retreat provides time away from your normal routine, with time for silent and communal prayer in a peaceful, natural environment. It's a time for spiritual and personal growth - to learn more about how God's grace is present in prayer, scripture, the sacraments, service and Christian fellowship.
At your retreat, all meals and snacks/drinks will be provided, but you will be asked to let the retreat team know about any special dietary restrictions or medical needs. This retreat is for you to focus on Christ. while we have the privilege to serve you. We invite you to come walk the road to Emmaus with us, encountering the risen Christ along the way.
Cost (to be determined) includes room, board and program. Scholarships are available to those in need.
The retreat begins on Friday evening and concludes on Sunday afternoon.
Transportation is provided.
Were not our hearts burning within us while he was talking to us on the road, while he was opening the scriptures to us? Luke 24:32
