Come and join Bishop Brian Mascord, Fr. James Mallon, and other movement leaders in this national gathering of priests and lay leaders on fire for mission and evangelisation.

Every Day is Holy

This retreat invites you to pause, reflect, and rediscover the sacredness woven into the fabric of daily life. Guided by His Eminence, John Cardinal Dew, we will explore the profound truth that each day is already a gift — already holy — simply because it is given by God.

 

 

We are invited not to reach for holiness as something far beyond us, but to recognize it in the here and now — to become aware of the grace that surrounds us and to respond with gratitude and love.
