7 – July 11, 2026 Foyer de Charité de Baye Marne 20 places

A few days at the Foyer de Charité de Baye to nurture your relationship

Like all retreats at a Foyer de Charité, this session is first and foremost a personal journey where each person is welcomed as they are, with respect for their convictions and their story.

Through times of teaching, prayer, and relaxation, a new peace rises in the heart.

The session is "warmed" by the fraternal, discreet, and prayerful presence of the community members at your side.

For this session, children up to 12 years old are welcome. For babies, childcare is available in limited numbers; please arrange this with the Foyer.

Programme

  • The session will begin on Tuesday, July 7: welcome from 10:00 a.m. It will end on Saturday, July 11 at around 2:00 p.m.
  • Each day there will be 2 or 3 teachings given by Renaud and Dominique Desforges, and one teaching by Father Jacques Wersinger.
  • We will also offer times of prayer with the community: Lauds, Mass, adoration.
  • The chapel is always open for a more personal time: mental prayer...
  • In your free time: walks through the vineyards and woods

Practical information
