The Source & Summit Adult Retreat is a wonderful opportunity to spend time with our Lord, renewing our spirits and learning more about some of the topics that are unique to the Catholic Faith. A variety of speakers, all parishioners, present at the retreat.

This retreat is held twice a year, in February and October, at the Carmelite Spiritual Center in Darien, Illinois, approximately 45 minutes from St. John.

Comments from past participants:

• "The inspiring talks and testimonies that were presented really helped enkindle a renewed desire in me to live out my faith."
• "The personal stories were incredible!"
• "The correlation between Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition and its influence on our everyday lives was very helpful."
• "All of the talks and presentations were very helpful. It helped to share with us that the path to the Lord isn't a straight line for most people."

Upcoming Retreat Dates are:

October 19-21, 2007
