Each year we organize two to three retreats at El Carmelo Retreat House in Redlands--one to two for the men of the Parish, and one for the women. They are separate retreats--each normally held in the Spring. El Carmelo Reteat House in Redlands, California, is operated by the Discalced Carmelite Fathers, the same order as our priests at the parish. We also offer a Men's Retreat in the Fall held at Mater Dolorosa Retreat House in Sierra Madre--run by the Passionist Fathers.
Men! Take advantage of the retreat opportunities offered to you. Every Spring, St. Therese invites the men of the parish to take part in one to two retreats at El Carmelo Retreat House in Redlands (www.elcarmelo.org), which is run by the Discalced Carmelite Friars. And every September, St. Therese invites you to take part in a retreat at Mater Dolorosa Retreat House in Sierra Madre which is run by the Passionist Fathers.
Please check the EVENTS page to see if there are any upcoming retreats.
Consider the gift of a weekend retreat to yourself! Each year (normally on the third weekend in March), the women from St. Therese go on retreat at El Carmelo Retreat House in Redlands, which is run by the Discalced Carmelite Fathers (www.elcarmelo.org).
The rates for the weekend are $170 (shared room) or $190 (single room), which include a comfortable room with a private bath, family-style meals, and an atmosphere of peace and beauty. A $50 non-refundable deposit is required at time of reservation (check or money order made out to El Carmelo). The Retreat also includes the Sacraments, conferences, private consultations, etc. Bus transportation will be provided.
For reservations and/or more information, please call Louisa Day at (323) 722-9339. Near the time of the retreat, you should find brochures in the church vestibule.
