From Experience….

If I had to choose the most im-

portant events in my life at this

point, they would be: my wedding

day, the births of my two sons ....

and my Emmaus experience. They

were all life-changing, and the Lord

was the leader of all of them!

-Dave

I didn’t know anyone before going. I

just signed up. Upon my return I

gained friends I never knew I had.

-Eric

We all wonder if we should take ad-

vantage of opportunities that come

our way and … the chance I took on

the Emmaus Retreat helped

redirect my life.

MEN’S RETREAT

Emmaus

“their eyes were opened & they recognized him”

SEPT. 29 — OCT. 1, 2017

MEN’S EMMAUS RETREAT

SEPT. 29 — OCT. 1, 2017

Emmaus Retreat

Two friends who knew Jesus, who walked with him, talked with him, and ate meals with him for three years did not recognize him on a long walk down a dusty road to Emmaus. Based upon this bible story, the retreat helps you to recognize Jesus in your daily life.

How often on your walk through life do you not see Jesus? What road are you traveling? What voices are you listening to? Are you traveling alone? As men of Emmaus, we invite you to join us on this walk. Together, we will encounter Jesus and open our eyes to His presence, in ourselves and those around us.

What to expect:

• Fellowship

• Laughter

• Meaningful conversation

• Honesty

• Friendship

• Healing

• Spiritual growth

SCHEDULE: Participants will meet at All Saints Catholic Church in Lakeville at 6:00pm on Friday and return late afternoon on Sunday.

LOCATION: The retreat is held at the Franciscan Retreat and Spirituality Center in Prior Lake, MN.

ACCOMODATIONS: Sleeping rooms are single occupancy.

MEALS: Light snack on Friday night. Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided on Saturday, and brunch on Sunday.

COST: A free will offering is en-couraged to support the future of the retreat program. (The actual cost to conduct an Emmaus Retreat is approximately $175.00 per person.)
