The CRHP Mission and Invitation
We invite the Men and Women of St. Margaret Mary Parish, who are seeking a difference in their lives, for a weekend of renewal. We will enjoy each other's fellowship, explore the Gospel and how it impacts our lives, and pray for grace. With renewed grace, we hope to impact our families and communities in a meaningful way. This is how Christ renews his parish. Separate retreats are held for men and for women.
What is a CRHP Retreat?
It is a time to relax, pray, and rethink priorities.
It is a time to get to know others in the parish
and grow as a community.
It is an opportunity to examine, rediscover,
and/or intensify your personal relationship
with Christ.
It is a weekend of reflection and sharing of
spiritual and real life issues.
What a CRHP Retreat Is not
It is not a silent retreat, yet there are
periods of quiet reflection and prayer.
It is not a parish organization or clique.
It is not a solitary retreat, your participation
makes the retreat a spiritual one for you and
the other participants.
You will not be required to speak in front of
the group, however, your participation in the
group discussions is a key to the retreat.
What happens during the retreat?
The retreat formats involve short talks given
by the previous CRHP team.
You will be in small groups to reflect upon those
talks and how they may be relevant to you life
and your spiritual growth.
Some examples of the talks that will be given are
Father's Loving Care, Scripture, Spirituality, and
Christian Awareness.
