Good Friday Day of Recollection on April 18, 2025
We are thrilled to announce our upcoming Good Friday Day of Recollection which will take place on Friday, April 18, 2025. Our theme this year is Walking Through the Good Fridays of Our Lives with Jesus.
This inspirational annual event will begin at 9 am sharp (though doors will open for coffee and donuts at 8 am), and will conclude at 1 pm after a light Lenten lunch prepared by our chef. We are intentionally concluding at 1 pm to allow everyone the opportunity to attend Good Friday services at their own churches later in the day. And, though this event technically ends at 1 pm, folks are welcome to stay as late as 3 pm, enjoying God in nature on our beautiful grounds and/or spending some quiet time in our peaceful chapel.
Our presenter will be Jane Guenther, Director of the Catholic Renewal Center for the Archdiocese of St. Louis, and our time with her will include keynote presentations and time for personal reflection. Additional optional opportunities will include small group discussion, spiritual direction, outdoor prayer experiences, hiking, and golf cart tours of our beautiful 120-acre property.
The cost is $45 per person, and registration is open until the end of the day on Friday, April 11, 2025.
