Would love to hear about a retreat that you really enjoyed and was meaningful to you. One of my friends tried a silent retreat but after two days was crawling the walls.
I’ve been going to the White House Retreat Center in St. Louis for the last 5 years or so. This is a 3-day silent retreat on the bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River. Each year in early May about 15 people from my parish go and are joined by about 70 others . . . some coming from as far away as Wisconsin.Would love to hear about a retreat that you really enjoyed and was meaningful to you.

TA Stobie provided a good summary. Here is a link to the retreat center I go to: www.whretreat.orgPlease describe what a “retreat” is, and what it’s supposed to do. They are advertised in our parish bulletin from time to time, but whenever I’ve asked for more information, no one seems to know what goes on at a retreat.
