Discernment Retreat for Men 18-35


  • Lial Renewal Center 5908 Davis Road Whitehouse, OH, 43571 United States (map)

Retreats are important moments to listen to God and hear the talks of priests, seminarians or religious. Retreats foster genuine discernment. In the midst of your busy lives, a retreat opportunity affords you time of silence and clarity that cannot be found in the world. Please take advantage of a retreat experience to ask God what He wants for your life – a retreat gives you such an opportunity.

  • WHAT: This day of reflection is an opportunity for Catholic men, ages 18 to 35, who are open to considering a call to the priesthood or religious life. This day of reflection is an opportunity to learn practical methods of prayer and discernment that will help them better understand God’s plan for their life. 

  • WHERE: Lial Renewal Center, 5908 Davis Road, Whitehouse, OH 43571

  • WHEN: The retreat will begin with check-in at 5pm - 6 pm on Friday, December 6th, with dinner starting promptly at 6 pm and end after lunch (around 1pm) on Sunday, December 8th

  • COST: $25, payable upon arrival to Lial Renewal Center
