WELCOME

Abbey Retreat Center Administrative Assistant Jill Richard and Deacon Steve Ferran, Retreat Center director, are ready to welcome you!

A Message From Our Director…

We are excited to begin another “retreat year” here at the Saint Joseph Abbey Retreat Center, and we look forward to welcoming everyone to this very special place.

The theme of all of the 2024 – 2025 retreats is “Relationships of Hope.” Our retreat facilitators have prepared meaningful and insightful presentations to encourage us to seek and nurture relationships that inspire hope and joy.

This year, our retreat facilitators are:

  • Sister Judith Gomila, M.S.C.

  • Father Jude Israel, O.S.B.

  • Father Augustine Foley, O.S.B.

  • Father Basil Burns, O.S.B.

  • Deacon Steve Ferran

I am hopeful that your upcoming retreat will be a grace-filled experience and that our team will help you to seek, identify, and nurture relationships that inspire hope and joy.

Sincerely,

Deacon Steve Ferran
Retreat Center Director
