St. Michael Silent Retreat

Registration for the Fall Silent Retreat will open in August of 2025

“There is nothing in this world so valuable as spending several days peacefully occupied only with the great matters in life: God, the soul and eternity.” Venerable Bruno Lanteri

Led by Fr. Brian Park, St. Michael offers two Silent Retreats each year. This retreat is designed to help you enter into a quiet place of deep reflection and renewal. Along with a weekend of silence and extended periods of personal prayer and rest, the retreat also includes Mass, Confession, Eucharistic Adoration, and an opportunity for spiritual direction. Christ the King Retreat Center provides all meals along with private rooms and bathrooms for every retreatant.
