Sunday Of Divine Mercy April 3, 2016 ST. ELIZABETH S MEN S WHITE HOUSE RETREAT JULY 28 - JULY 31 South of St. Louis on bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River and the rich farm land to the east are 75 acres of beautiful grounds. A perfect setting for the Lord s gift of peace. White House retreats offer comfort to retreatents on their silent journey with the Lord. On your journey you will hear instructive talks by the retreat director. You have the opportunity for private conferences with the Jesuit staff, daily mass, the sacraments of reconciliation and anointing of the sick. The director and staff are always available. If you have thought about making a retreat, make this the year. The most common comment we hear from first time retreatents, wish I had done it sooner. Plan now to join us. Our retreat begins on Thursday, July 28th at 7:00 pm with dinner and welcome. It ends on Sunday, July 31st at 12:50 pm with dinner and closing ceremony. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THIS RETEAT WILL BE PUBLISHED IN FUTURE BULLETINS. Comments from people that have attended prior retreats: The retreat helps me find my sense of purpose in life. It strengthened my relationship and faith in God. It s just an excellent mental tune up. It s like a reset button for a busy and noisy life. Absolutely life changing!
