The retreat registration deadline was Sunday, March 12.

Our 2023 Lenten retreat is inspired by the spirituality of the Congregation of Holy Cross and meant to be an opportunity for rest and contemplation "away" in the beautiful setting of the Sacred Heart Parish Center.  Father Zack Rathke, C.S.C., will give a keynote talk on the theme "Encountering Christ through the Cross."  Together we'll reflect upon inspiring excerpts from the Constitutions of the Congregation.  Retreatants can opt to spend time in solitude in the chapel or grounds, or they can choose to pray as a group as they explore devotional practices in the Holy Cross tradition.  Throughout the day, we will ask for the special intercession of Saint Joseph and Our Lady of Sorrows, who along with the Sacred Heart of Jesus are the patrons of the Congregation of Holy Cross.

From the EAST (Ironwood) and SOUTH (Twyckenham): Take Douglas Road east from the Twyckenham roundabout to the next roundabout. Follow directions to Moreau Drive (old Douglas Road). Drive west down to the Parish Center parking lot about a half mile. (No access to SR 933 from Moreau Drive)

From the WEST (SR 933): Turn east onto the new Douglas Road at the traffic light by Toll Road entrance. Bear right at the first and second roundabouts, the first continuing east on Douglas Road, the second heading off onto Moreau Drive (old Douglas Road). Go through the traffic light, and continue west about a half mile, nearly to the end of the road, and turn left into the last drive, where the parking lot for the Parish Center is located.

From the NORTH (Juniper): Go south on Juniper past the first exit for Douglas Road on the roundabout to the second (left/east) exit for Douglas Road. At the next roundabout, stay in the right lane, and veer right onto Moreau Drive (old Douglas Road). Continue driving west to the Parish Center parking lot, on your left about a half mile.
