June 1 -3 Men’s Retreat

Theme:  Weekend Retreat on Prayer: Have you ever wondered how you might grow in your life of prayer?  The Catechism of the Catholic Church has a section on the prayer life of Christians and Bishop Brian Dunn will offer a weekend retreat using some of the material from this section of the Catechism.  It will give all of us an opportunity of examining our prayer life in the context of how the Church gives us assistance in the ways we might grow in our relationship with God.
