The retreat is for parishioners of the Church of St. Francis of Assisi and their friends.  There is a limited number of spots available for the retreat.

WHAT:

This retreat is a chance for parishioners to escape the city for a couple of days to connect with one another and reconnect with God.  There will be time to pray, hear talks, discuss the faith, and enjoy quiet time on the beautiful property of the Mt. Alvernia Franciscan Retreat Center in Wappingers Falls, NY.
