The “St. Joseph, the Perpetual Adorer” retreat invites participants to deepen their spiritual connection to Christ through the lens of Saint Joseph’s profound devotion and humility. 

As the earthly father of Jesus and protector of the Holy Family, Saint Joseph exemplifies the virtues of adoration, service, and quiet faith. This retreat focuses on his role as a model for Eucharistic adoration, reflecting his silent yet steadfast presence in the mystery of Christ.

Guided reflections, prayerful adoration before the Blessed Sacrament, and meditations on Saint Joseph’s life inspire participants to emulate his unwavering trust in God, fostering a deeper love for Christ and a renewed commitment to discipleship.

The retreat will conclude with the Virtual Lourdes Pilgrimage Experience where participants will have the opportunity to venerate relic rocks from the grotto of Our Lady’s apparition, receive a Lourdes water blessing, participate in Eucharistic blessing and a multi-lingual rosary procession. All pilgrims are eligible for a plenary indulgence, under the normal conditions.

The retreat will be held February 22nd at Saint Anne Catholic Church, 10550 Ford Ave., Richmond Hill, GA.
