Mission Statement
We are Christians dedicated to serving the Lord, each other, families, parishes, and communities. We believe in God the Creator, His son Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, who guides us through the magisterium of the Catholic Church with its scripture and traditions and through the intercessions of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Through the Retreat Center, we provide opportunity for spiritual growth, social development and community service. We will do this through facilities, staff, and programs.
