ABOUT THIS RETREAT
“Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” Mark 6:31
The Office of Evangelization and Catechesis invites all adults (18+) who serve in ministry with children, youth, young adults, adults, and families across the Diocese of Honolulu to a time of spiritual renewal, reflection, and fellowship.
Just as Jesus invited his disciples to step away from their daily work for rest and renewal, this retreat offers a sacred pause from the busyness of ministry. It is a time to reconnect with God, reflect on the priorities of life and service, and make practical resolutions for continued growth in faith and leadership.
This Leadership Retreat (ILR) includes presentations, moments of silence, prayer, and meaningful community. The focus of the retreat is hospitality — not merely as good manners or friendliness, but as a pillar of Catholic stewardship and an expression of Christ-centered discipleship. Participants will explore how to practice and sustain true hospitality in their lives and parish ministries.
