2023 Silent Retreat for High School and University Girls
Registration is open for our upcoming Silent Retreat for Students. The retreat will run from Friday, Sept. 8 at 9am to Sunday, Sept. 10 at 3pm at King’s Fold Retreat & Renewal Centre near Cochrane.
Silent retreats are a time for peaceful prayer, a chance to reflect on how we can better live our faith in our day to day.
2022 Silent Retreat for High School Girls
We have something amazing coming up … a Silent Retreat at Pat Siray’s place in Millarville!
(It’s back, after 2 years of Covid cancellations!)
The retreat takes place at the end of Holy Week, from Holy Thursday evening to Holy Saturday afternoon. I am attaching the invite with all the details; space is limited so do let us know asap if you are interested in registering. It is a wonderful way to live those beautiful days of Holy Week and prepare for Easter. The silence — we try not to talk to each other so we can really talk deeply with God – is so helpful and the setting, absolutely beautiful! There are talks given by the retreat organizers, and meditations too, of course, along with the Way of the Cross etc. We will go to the Good Friday services and have Holy Thursday Mass at Pat’s the evening of our arrival.
TO SECURE YOUR SPOT, please pay in full – preferably via e-transfer to wpf.albertaretreats@gmail.com. And while we are giving priority to newcomers until April 3rd, girls who did the Fall 2021 retreat at Kingsfold can register NOW – i.e. before the April 3rd priority registrations closes, IF you are accompanying a new friend on the retreat.
We will open the registrations to the Fall 2021 crowd after priority registration closes on April 3rd, 2022. If you have questions or simply want more information on this retreat, please don’t hesitate to ask!
