Mini Retreats

What is a Suscipe Mini-Retreat?

Simply put, our community takes one half day each month (typically a Saturday morning) to be on retreat together.  The retreat consists of a talk, time for silence/prayer, and optional small group discussion time.  It’s a great opportunity to reset and spend some time with the Lord!

Here’s What You Can Expect

 Talk on a Spiritual Topic

Our topic will be on a specific area of the interior life and will be sure to give you much to consider and pray with for the day.

Self-Guided

This is a retreat you can do on your own wherever you are able to.  Simply find a place where you can spend time in prayer and quiet.

Guided Prayer Time

We’ll provide each participant helpful prayer materials, guidance, etc. to help guide your prayer.

Half Day

While the retreat is flexible, typically you’ll want to set aside about three hours total for the retreat.

Supportive Group Discussion

You are welcome to join the discussion online through Zoom to share with and receive from others who participated in the retreat.
