"Does God the Merciful give meaning to life?"
Putting God back at the center of one's life.
"Does God the Merciful give meaning to life?"
Reserve my spot
A few days to refocus on what matters most
This spiritual retreat will seek to provide answers to life's great human and spiritual questions, as well as to the challenges of the contemporary world, through living teachings grounded in the Word of God and in experience. The teachings will be given by the founder of the Foyer Marie Jean.
During this time of human and spiritual renewal, you will also be carried by an atmosphere of prayer and silence and thoughtful liturgy.
The beautiful grounds and the proximity of the forest, the discreet yet attentive care of the brothers and sisters who will share in this spiritual retreat alongside you, for whom it is also preached, and each person's own recollection, will open you to the mystery of the God of Mercy and of Life.
