FSSP Clergy Retreat

CLERGY YEAR OF MERCY RETREAT
Monday, 2 to Friday, 6 May 2016
Pilgerheim Sankt Josef, Kirchstraße 18, D-88145, Wigratzbad, Germany

Silent "Year of Mercy" retreat for diocesan priests and religious, deacons and seminarians, led in English by Fr Armand de Malleray, FSSP on the theme: “Jesus Christ is the face of the Father’s mercy”.

Wigratzbad is a Marian shrine in the diocese of Augsburg in Bavaria. It is also home to the Mother-house and International Seminary of the Priestly Fraternity of St Peter. In this refreshing rural and Catholic environment, 80 seminarians are training for the priesthood, including several Britons. We will have the opportunity of praying some of the Divine Office with them: a memorable experience.

Every priest retreatant will be able to say Holy Mass in the Form of his choice (at the diocesan shrine church, or at the Seminary). There will be daily Eucharistic Adoration. Every morning and afternoon Fr de Malleray will give a meditation (in English). Meals are taken in silence with table readings for lunch and supper. The Shrine Cafeteria is accessible for mid-morning coffee/tea and afternoon snack. Every retreatant will have a single room with ensuite bathroom.
