Bishops Retreat: JPII Healing Center
Never before has it been more imperative that the Church take up her mission to bring healing and restoration to her people. This conference will encourage and equip Bishops in their ministry to bring healing to Christ’s broken body, paving the way for each person to reclaim his whole human identity in Christ.
More importantly, this five-day retreat is designed for Bishops to personally be refreshed in Christ’s healing love during this challenging season in the Church and to receive deeper freedom from the various struggles of one’s own life.
We invite you to come apart for the week with a small group of brother bishops.
In addition to the teaching, there will be opportunities to receive personal ministry from the team, including a priest, a Catholic doctor and experienced prayer ministers from the JPII Healing Center.
Franciscan University Leaders Retreat
This is a closed event for the student leaders of Franciscan University.
Alaska Cruise Healing Pilgrimage
Join Heather, Jake and Fr. Dave Pivonka on an inspiring journey through Alaska, a haven of God’s breathtaking creation. Immerse yourself in an experience where the grandeur of nature beautifully harmonizes with our cherished Catholic practices.
Our pilgrimage begins with an exhilarating voyage aboard the Princess Cruise, where we’ll celebrate the Holy Mass, setting a tone of gratitude and devotion. As we journey through the vast Alaskan waters, we’ll be enveloped by the serenity of fjords and the lush green islands, reminding us of God’s immeasurable wonders. In Juneau, not only will we be met with unparalleled glacier views, but we’ll also pray at the National Shrine of St. Therese of Lisieux, the patron saint of Alaska. Here, our faith will be deepened as we come together in prayer and reflection. The rich history of places like Skagway beckons, where tales of gold seekers from yesteryears echo, and the charm of the boardwalk transports you back in time. As we sail towards Glacier Bay National Park, a United Nations World Heritage Site, we are met with a vast expanse of natural wonders. Majestic tidewater glaciers, snow-capped mountains, and an abundance of birds and wildlife will be our companions as we celebrate another Holy Mass amidst this natural cathedral.
Our voyage is as much about internal reflection as it is about external exploration. Ketchikan’s indigenous roots and its title as the ‘Salmon Capital of the World’ offers a blend of cultural immersion and tantalizing fresh seafood. As our pilgrimage draws to an end with a farewell dinner on the cruise, our hearts and souls will be filled with gratitude, having witnessed the marvels of God’s creation and having deepened our faith in His majesty. Come, be a part of this transcendent journey, where every moment is a testament to God’s magnificent handiwork and our unwavering Catholic faith.

Healing Pilgrimage to France with Franciscan Pilgrimages
Join Heather & Jake Khym on a Healing Pilgrimage to France. Here’s what you can expect:
Explore France’s beautiful Catholic Shrines and experience the healing the Lord has in store for you at these holy places. From small villages in the South of France to Paris, one of the greatest cities in the world, France is sure to take your breath away. On this Pilgrimage you will see magnificent Shrines and Churches and learn of the lives of; St. Bernadette, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Veronica and Zaccheus, St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, St. Therese of Lisieux, and St. Catherine Labourne. Don’t miss this chance to find peace amidst your struggles alongside our beloved friar Fr. Nathan Malavolti, TOR, Jake and Heather Khym, a married couple who facilitates God’s continual work of healing.
Along with the life of St. Bernadette, you will be able to take a closer look into the life of St. Theresa of Lisieux (The Little Flower) and her Family. The spread of devotion for her is one of the most impressive religious manifestations of our time. Like St. Teresa of Avila, they both endured severe physical sufferings, both had the capacity for intense religious experience, and both led lives made radiant by the love of Christ. Her parents, Saint Louis and Zelie Martin, became the first married couple that were canonized.

Sacred Stillness: A Catholic Advent Retreat
Be still. It’s hard to do it at this time of year, isn’t it? Every moment seems to be full of busy-ness: shopping, wrapping gifts, planning parties. But to truly celebrate Advent—to prepare ourselves for the coming of Christ—we need time for reflection, prayer, and quiet.
Join Heather Khym, Fr. Jeffrey Kirby and Tsh Oxenreider On Saturday, December 2nd for the Advent retreat you need.
Intentional Invitation: From Good Experiences to Life-Changing Encounter
Join Heather Khym, Fr. Stephen Langridge, and Katie Bak at our upcoming online event.
We all want our parish to be an inviting place where people encounter Jesus in a life-changing way. But the reality is, there's an art to invitation that is lost in most of our parishes — and with it the opportunities to invite people to know and follow our Lord.
If invitation matters as a stepping stone into faith and ongoing conversion, how do we create these experiences intentionally?
The Men's Retreat: Yeshua
This experience offers something for everyone. Powerful presentations, quiet, prayer time, break-out sessions, sacraments, fellowship, adventure, music, rest, quiet, hiking, and the stunning beauty of Rockridge Canyon. This is the retreat you don't want to miss.
