Upcoming Retreats

Come and join us for a beautiful day of spiritual nourishment at the 15th Annual Women’s Fall Retreat on Saturday, October 26th, 2024 from 9am to 3:30pm. The retreat will be held at Holy Cross Catholic School, 521 Clothier Street, Kemptville, ON. Our guest speaker is Nancy Steele, a local author, and the theme of this year’s retreat is The Steadfast Love of the Lord (Lam 3:22-23):

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, his mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.

The morning will begin with Holy Mass celebrated by Father Brian McNally at Holy Cross Church, and the remainder of the day will be held in the school. Prepare to be inspired by Nancy’s keynote talks followed by meaningful conversations during our group discussions. There will be time for worship music, personal prayer and reflection.
