Two disciples follow Jesus.  As they approach him, they ask, “Where are you staying?” Jesus replies “Come and you will see.”  Jesus invites them in.  He invites them into a relationship with Him that changes their lives forever.   Jesus invites each of us to come.  Will you come, and see?  Will you accept the invitation to spend time with Him?

This 24-hour retreat is an opportunity for you to have time to reflect on Jesus’ invitation.  Come away to this quiet, serene center at Benet House and spend time to just ‘be’ and embrace Jesus’ invitation.
