Sessions begin Tuesday morning and wrap up at Thursday lunch.
- This time with other priests and coaches is important and valuable, so please make this part of your travel plans.
- We know that weather and airline schedules don’t always align. Just let us know if you won’t be able to make it in time for dinner.
- Our retreat formally begins on Tuesday morning. We’ll start with Prayer of the First Hour, followed by breakfast. Our intensive content, reflection and workshops will start at 9 AM. Dinner is at 6 or 6:30. Wednesday follows a similar schedule.
- We often mix up all-day learning from 9 AM to 4 PM on one day with a second day that includes a longer afternoon break and a session after dinner. This allows you to enjoy retreat amenities, especially at our “destination locations.”
- Thursday is focused on group coaching and coming up with 90-Day Action Plans. The program officially ends at noon.
- Lunch will be take-away. We encourage to stay on site and eat if you can, but you can take lunch to-go in order to be on time for your flight.
It’s important to stay all the way through noon on the last day, so allow ample time between the end of the retreat and your flight home.
