Every Day is Holy | 31 Aug – 3 Sep 2026

31 August 2026 by Cris Nicodemus

Every Day is Holy | 31 Aug - 3 Sep 2026

Date/Time - Mon 31 Aug - Thu 3 Sep 5:00pm - 1:30pm


Come and be renewed. Come and see. Every day is holy.

This retreat invites you to pause, reflect, and rediscover the sacredness woven into the fabric of daily life. Guided by His Eminence, John Cardinal Dew, we will explore the profound truth that each day is already a gift — already holy — simply because it is given by God.

We are invited not to reach for holiness as something far beyond us, but to recognize it in the here and now — to become aware of the grace that surrounds us and to respond with gratitude and love. Cost which includes accommodation and meals is $430 per person.
