Retreat "Have I not seen the Lord?"

Retreat centered on accounts of encounters with the Lord

June 28 – July 4, 2026 Notre-Dame de la Neylière Guest House Rhône 30 places
Retreat "Have I not seen the Lord?"

A week to (re)encounter Christ

  • Saint Paul is among the many witnesses who encountered Christ. This encounter marks the starting point of a wonderful adventure lived in faith. During the retreat, we will be invited to a meditative reading of several accounts of encounters with Jesus.
  • There will be two talks per day, offered by Yvan Carré, a Marist priest. At the end of each one, questions will be posed to accompany your personal reflection.
  • All of this takes place in the enchanting setting of La Neylière, which fosters silence, listening, and prayer. The retreat unfolds in an atmosphere of prayer and meditation. We are invited to create a space of silence, including during meals.
  • It will be possible to experience the sacramental encounter of reconciliation.
