A week-long retreat with the Carmelites of Surieu
- Come celebrate the holidays differently by following the rich liturgy of the Christmas season: Christmas, St. Stephen, St. John, Holy Innocents...
- Each day brings a new perspective on the feast of Christmas and will help you prepare more deeply for the new year!
- You can spend the entire week with us or come for just a few days, or even for a single day.
- Highlights: Midnight Mass on Christmas and Adoration until midnight on December 31, each followed by a festive gathering.
We simply invite you to live according to the rhythm of the divine offices.
