Where & When Can I Find a Joyful Again! Weekend?

Where and When?

Chicago and suburban retreats are held on several weekends throughout the year at Chicagoland parishes, as well as other facilities.

When does it start and end?

Our typical schedule is

  • Saturday 8:45 am to 7:30 pm
  • Sunday 8:45 am to 3:15 pm

Participants leave after Saturday’s  session and return on Sunday morning. Occasionally, the program is held at a facility

How Much Does It Cost?

The typical donation is $98, which covers 5 meals and snacks.

Lodging, when available, is $40 additional.

The cost of the weekend can be adjusted in special circumstances.

We’d Love To Hear From You.
