Domestic Church Retreats
Evangelization Retreats:
Evangelization is the first step of any real faith journey. We must experience the reality of who Christ is, who we are, and what His love for us is capable of doing before we can make any real progress. And, since Domestic Church provides for this journey to be undertaken in union with our spouses, we must experience Christ anew, together, before we can begin to grow together toward sainthood. Come, receive the Good News, and stir up the grace of your Sacrament! Sacramentally married couples interested in joining Domestic Church typically do so by attending an Evangelization Retreat as an introduction to formation.
Oasis Family Retreats:
Each year Domestic Church provides multiple locations in the U.S. for longer family retreats. Often, we fall into the trap of believing that the constant demands of our spouses and children and the chaos and "earthy-ness" of family life are obstacles to our holiness and spiritual growth. Here, however, they are experienced as the very place where we truly find ourselves and experience the powerful presence of God at work within us a "domestic church". Unlike many of our family vacation experiences, we come home from these retreats feeling truly rested, stronger, joyful, and energized. There are 3 ascending levels of Oasis Retreats, and these are typically for families already in Domestic Church circles.
