Retreat Program 2024
Josephite sisters and many others take an opportunity each year to move away from the busyness of their ordinary daily life. They choose to retreat from the surface of life – to become centred and still. Their focus is to deepen their relationship with God.
There are special locations or Retreat Centres where a person can go for a week or even a few days to focus on the inner journey. If a person wishes there are retreat guides available to offer individual direction and listen closely to what the person is seeking.

A Spirituality for the Second Half of Life

Join Eamonn Pollard and Linda Di Sipio for a transformative experience that explores spiritual growth, well-being, and the deeper callings of life. Eamonn, with his expertise in spirituality and education, and Linda, with her extensive background in faith-based formation, will guide you in integrating these priorities into your life.
