Summary

Are you facing some tough decisions, or one big choice to make and having a hard time deciding?  Or are you concerned that you are not doing what God wants you to be doing?  Do you find yourself asking questions such as: 

• Should I trust my gut?
• What do I really want?
• What will make me and others happy in the long run? 
• Am I using my God given talents to the best of my ability? 
• What's God's will? 

If so, this retreat can help you. Drawing on insights from his book, “What’s Your Decision?”, Fr. Michael will present an “Ignatian tool kit” for discernment and decision making, leading a series of prayer exercises designed to help us listen to God. 

Description

This retreat includes 7 presentations, daily mass, 6 hot meals, the opportunity for one-on-one spiritual direction with a trained spiritual director, and many other opportunities to explore our 80 acres and almost 60k square feet of  interior space.  All activities are optional, but we do ask everyone to respect the quiet of the retreat house for everyone to have the opportunity to read, sleep and reflect in the quiet.
