The Notre Dame de Namur University (NDNU) Office of Alumni Relations invites you to attend the 19th Annual Carmel Alumni Retreat Weekend: Gaudete et exsultate. The annual event will be on January 25 – 27, 2019 at Villa Angelica, the private Carmel residence donated to the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur.
This year’s Carmel Retreat will include discussions of Pope Francis third Apostolic Exhortation, “Gaudete et exsultate: On the call to holiness in today’s world,” and the final steps towards growth in holiness as described by saints and mystics throughout the ages. Both Sr. Roseanne Murphy, SNDdeN, and Fr. Stephen Coffey, a Camaldolese priest from San Luis Obispo, will facilitate the discussions. The weekend will have a balance of sharing and time for reflection.
In his third Apostolic Exhortation (following Evangelii gaudium and Amoris laetitia) Pope Francis reflects on the call to holiness, and how we can respond to that call in the modern world. Pope Francis says, “My modest goal is to repropose the call to holiness in a practical way for our own time.”
Accommodations: At registration, you will find three price points: Shared Room, Single Suites, and Retreat Conference only.
Space is limited: The last day to register for the event is January 16, 2019.
