Men’s Silent Retreat
April 30 @ 5:00 pm - 5:30 pm
A five day men’s silent retreat begins on 30th April at Benburb Priory, Tyrone.
This five-day retreat is a shortened form of the full Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius of Loyola. The Exercises are a synthetic and practical presentation of the central truths of the Catholic faith—God, the meaning of life, the eternal destiny of mankind, the life of Jesus Christ Saviour of the human race—in the form of meditations, examination of conscience and prayers, to find peace of heart, rid oneself of worldly attachments and discover the will of God for the salvation of the soul.
On the purely practical level, the day consists of 4 or 5 talks given by one or other of the two priests who are guiding the retreat. After each talk there is time for private prayer, and then free time to converse with the priests. There is of course daily Mass and Rosary, as well as opportunity for Confession.
Places are limited for this retreat and we would advise booking early to avoid disappointment.
