2026 Theme

The meditations and talks of our 2026 retreat will focus on the life of Christ and aim to rekindle your love for attitudes close to Pope Leo XIV’s heart: vulnerability, humility, peace and unity.  Here are the core themes and some suggested readings:

  1. Vulnerability: "Greater than your heart": Contrition and Reconciliation

  2. Humility, source of joy

  3. Peace: Simplicity To See the Path Clearly

  4. Unity: Love for the Pope and Trust in God
