Religious Sisters' Retreat: "A Lifetime of Blessedness" - Retreat on the Beatitudes

The theme for this year's Religious Sisters' Retreat is “A Lifetime of Blessedness – Retreat on the Beatitudes.” In our life and world, where the happiness or blessedness of a person is measured by the material wealth and social status acquired, the beatitudes (5:3-12) describe certain qualities and experiences of those who are considered blessed or happy in God’s eyes.
While these qualities and experiences of mourning, being poor in spirit, meek, and persecuted mentioned in the beatitudes, and often experienced in our religious life, do not look like blessedness or happiness at the outset, a deeper reflection on them reveals a blessed and happy way of life Jesus intends for those in consecrated religious life.
Whatever stage or situation of your religious vocation you might be in right now, you will find peace on our holy grounds, closeness with God in the prayer services, reconciliation in the sacraments, refreshment for your spirit in the talks, rest for your soul, and fraternal hospitality from the Capuchin brothers when you are here on a retreat.
Join us this year at the Capuchin Retreat Center to prayerfully meditate on the beatitudes to learn more about and embrace the blessed, joy-filled, and peace-filled way of life that Jesus has promised for those who believe in Him.
See you at the Capuchin Retreat Center soon! God bless you, sister!
