Retreats for Men
The Marshall Residence promotes and organizes groups for the retreats that take place at Wynncliff farm in Cleveland, WI or at the Shellbourne Conference Center in Valparaiso, IN. Local retreats may also be given on a non-regular basis, and information for those retreats will be posted on the website, provided at Recollections, and communicated out via Email.
We need to take time out, to be quiet, to pray and to reflect on our life and on our relationship with God. These quiet weekend retreats are not a luxury to be savored by a pious few; they are absolutely necessary for our soul. The major themes of the retreat are these:
Responding to our Christian vocation
Getting to know and love Jesus Christ
The Christian life is a continual conversion
Imitation of Christ in the middle of the world
All are called to holiness and apostolate
The need to develop a prayer life
Serving God through our study

“Days on retreat. Recollection in order to know God, to know yourself and thus to make progress. A necessary time for discovering where and how you should change your life.”
