// Ezekiel 36:26
On the New retreat, come fall in love with the Lord all over again—or for the very first time.
Join us on Friday, April 25th - Saturday, April 26th in Tempe, Arizona.
We know that Jesus Christ’s presence changes things—the atmosphere, people, circumstances. So we know we must be in His presence to be changed people.
We as Catholics know the truth and foundation of the Word of God, and we have seen our Lord change hearts when we begin to read His word. We desire to lay a foundation of prayer, praise, and reception of Scripture.
The Sacraments are given to us by our Lord in order for us to experience the fullness of life and freedom. We will enter into the Sacrament of Penance and the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
On retreat, you’ll encounter other hearts Who have fallen in love with the Lord and experience His powerful and personal love for you in community, worship, talks, Sacraments, and silence.

THE WEEKEND FAR EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS (JUST LIKE THE LORD DOES).
It was consoling, healing, encouraging, grounding, and exactly what I needed in many more ways. I’ve had a ton of life changing situations this last year and this weekend was an opportunity to breathe and be renewed in the Lord’s great mercy and goodness. The Eucharistic procession was powerful and Jesus graciously poured out a lot of healing power through it. Thank you for the way in which you all clearly let the Spirit move and direct the weekend.
My mom and friends and I were blown away - which means a lot, because my mom and her friend are non-Catholic, but my mom joyfully adored our Lord in the Eucharist! Thank you for welcoming her with fully Catholic teaching AND charity.
I was honestly blown away by the quality of of the sessions. They really put a lot of thought and prayers into each session. During the Eucharistic procession, for the first time in my life, I felt the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist and I think that was thanks to the amount of time we spent in prayer, meditation and silence. Thank you!! ❤️
This retreat was amazing, life-changing. The talks were powerful. Adoration and the praise and worship music were beautiful. The production of the virtual retreat was great with the camera work, high quality video, and lyrics to songs on the screen. I was more impressed with this BIS retreat than any others in the past. Thank you!!!
