 A Strong Experience of the Peace God."
Pope Benedict XVI commented during his February 2008 address to the Italian Federation of Spiritual Exercises.

"A strong experience of God, awakened by listening to His Word, understanding and welcomed in one's personal life, under the direction of the Holy Spirit, which in a climate of silence, prayer and by means of a spiritual guide, offers the capacity of discernment in order to purify the heart, convert one's life and follow Christ, so as to fulfill one's own mission in the Church and the world."

St. Joseph Retreat  and Visitor Center are available for private or group retreats or stay during visits

Private or Group Retreats Available

What Is a Private Catholic Retreat?

• Solitary Spiritual Experience: Unlike group retreats, private retreats allow you to set your own schedule and focus on personal prayer, meditation, and rest.

• Sacred Environment: Retreat centers are often located in serene natural settings—woodlands, hillsides, or near water—designed to foster peace and contemplation.

• Catholic Tradition: These retreats are rooted in Catholic spirituality, often offering access to chapels, Stations of the Cross, spiritual direction, and confession.

• Combining DVDs with Virtual Retreats

  In a world where technology often pulls us away from the sacred, there’s something profoundly grounding about blending the tactile experience of DVDs with the communal power of virtual retreats. Picture this: you’ve just popped in a DVD that transports you to the ancient cobblestone paths of a European shrine, the narrator’s voice weaving tales of miracles and saints with a reverence that stirs your soul. The visuals are vivid, almost tangible—every flickering candle, every weathered statue telling a story of faith that’s endured for centuries. But it doesn’t stop there.

  Now, imagine logging into a virtual retreat, a digital sanctuary where fellow Catholics from across the globe gather to reflect on those same sacred sites. Through guided discussions, shared prayers, and live reflections, you’re not just a passive viewer—you’re part of a living, breathing community. These retreats take the inspiration from the DVDs and turn it into a shared journey, a chance to unpack the mysteries of the Eucharist or the lives of the saints with others who are just as hungry for spiritual depth. It’s like sitting in a parish hall with old friends, only your parish hall spans continents.

  This fusion of old-school media and modern connection offers something rare: a way to engage with Catholic tradition that feels both personal and universal. The DVDs ground you in the physicality of holy places, while virtual retreats lift you into a space of collective faith. Together, they create a pilgrimage of the heart, one that doesn’t require a plane ticket but still transforms how you see the world—and your place in God’s plan.
