My brother and i had a good retreat.
We were in Novato, CA. which is 30 minutes north of the Golden Gate Bridge. The daily temperature was about 60 degrees. The retreat center used to be the home of a large ranch owner 100 years ago. it is now surrounded by homes.
The retreat center has a beautiful chapel and the food was very good.
Here was the daily schedule.
8:00 Morning Prayer
8:10 Conference
8:30 Mass
9:15 Breakfast
12:15 Conference
1:15 Lunch
3:30 Adoration
5:00 Conference and Benediction
6:00 Supper
8:00 Rosary
9:30 Night Prayer
We did that Tues - Thurs
It looks a little busy, but there was time for a walk and a nap and reading.
The conferences were nuts and bolts Catholicism: rely on grace, the sacraments, self denial, penance, grow in virtue. Let god work on you and you will then be a good instrument that God can use to work on others.
