Marillac Retreat & Spirituality Center
Time for Yourself, Time for God
When was the last time you stepped away from your schedule, closed your laptop, turned off your phone, and found some quiet time, just you and God? That’s what a retreat is for: to restore your soul and spirit and refresh your mind and body.
It’s time away from your daily routine to reorder your life, to get reacquainted with God and deepen your walk with Him. It’s peacefulness with a purpose.
Imagine the noise of the world fading away, replaced with a wonderful whisper—the “still, small voice of God.” Imagine feeling rested, revitalized, and refocused. That’s what a retreat can provide. So come to Marillac Center for your own individual retreat or day of prayer.
