July 7-8, 2017, Fr. James McCormack, MIC
Praying for the Holy Souls and our Families
Join us for this retreat with Fr. James McCormack, a member of the Marians of the Immaculate Conception. He currently serves as novice master, prefect of formation and local superior at the Marian Scholasticate in Washington, D.C. He regularly teaches classes on spirituality to the Marian novices. As a seminarian, he looked forward to his priesthood with the goal: "I want to be a merciful father, similar to the one in the parable of the Prodigal Son, who welcomes back with love and even runs to meet his wayward son."
July 28-29, 2017 Fr. Ben Luedtke, John LaBriola
Forgive That You May be Forgiven
Father Ben Luedtke was ordained by Pope John Paul II in Rome and is a missionary priest who has worked on three continents. He personally knew Mother Teresa of Calcutta and was often her personal driver in Rome. Each Missionary of Charity prays for a special priest; Fr. Leudtke was Mother Teresa’s special priest. Father currently resides at St. Albert the Great Parish in Dearborn Heights. Father Ben is a very sought after speaker, spiritual director and confessor. He presently serves Mother Teresa’s Missionary Sisters of Charity and is a spiritual director to several Carmelite Monasteries.
John LaBriola, author, radio host and well known Catholic speaker in the field of spiritual warfare will join us for this retreat. His book, Onward Catholic Soldier, is a wealth of knowledge from the saints, scripture and the Catholic Church in identifying, resisting and protecting against spiritual affliction.
Sept. 15-16, 2017 Fr. Aniello Salicone
Come Away and Rest Awhile Under the Mantle of Our Sorrowful Mother
We will celebrate our 20th anniversary on the Feast Day of Our Lady of Sorrows. We invite everyone to join us on this special occasion especially our many friends who have been to our retreats the past 20 years. We would love to see everyone again.

Pray the Rosary! Honoring Our Lady of Fatima on 100th Anniversary
Pope John Paul II beatified Jacinta and Francisco in 2000. The cause to beatify Sr. Lucia is near completion.
This Shrine to Our Lady of Fatima will be displayed in our Sanctuary to honor Mary on the 100th anniversary of her appearance in Fatima. The statue was handmade in Fatima and blessed by the Rector of the Shrine. The Rosary she holds was blessed by St. John Paul II.
Relics of Blessed Jacinta and Blessed Francisco are displayed for veneration. The reliquary contains material taken from their coffins when they were moved from the cemetery in Aljustrel to the Basilica in Fatima.
First Class Relic containing strands of hair of JP II, the "Fatima" pope. Pope John Paul II was shot on May 13, 1981, the 64th anniversary of Mary's first appearance in Fatima.
This reliquary contains a small piece of cloth that was part of a cassock that belonged to St. John Paul II.

“N”, or ن, is the first letter of the Arabic word for Christian, “Nasrani” or Nazarene. It has become the symbol of solidarity for Iraqi Christians who are being forced by ISIS to leave their homes unless they convert to Islam, pay a fine, or face ‘death by the sword.’
Please recite the rosary in support of persecuted Christians throughout the world.
