Welcome to Spring! Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!Spring is abounding all around us here at Nazareth Retreat Center. Our campus is blossoming forth with so many beautiful and varied colors each proclaiming the creativeness of our God.
The Triduum and Easter Liturgies here at Nazareth were so sacred. Not only were the Sisters who live here with us but so many friends, family and associates celebrated with us. We welcome so many families from the surrounding areas. Our Congregation consisted of such diversity in age from months old to almost 100 years old and diverse ethnic backgrounds. The bells rang out and voices sang...Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
The past months have been very busy ones for us here at Nazareth Retreat Center. We have welcomed groups from parishes and congregations of diverse denominations. People from schools ranging from grade schools through high school and college have joined us for days and weekends of retreat and reflection. We were particularly happy to welcome the students from Marquette University in Milwaukee for a day as they were on their Spring Break Service Trip...such inspiring young adults.
The spring and summer hold a variety of offerings for retreat/reflection experiences. Sisters Emily Nabholz,SCN and Mary Sue Kennedy, O.P. will be giving a retreat on Easter Blessings....the Wisdom Years. As well, we have directed retreats for women and men coming up in May and July. For those of you with an artistic bent, we will have an Artist Retreat in June.
We are so happy to welcome to our retreat center the international author and presenter Paula D'Arcy for the weekend of July 23- 25.
Please see our website for further information and do come join us for your own time apart.
