The Beloved Retreat was founded in 1999 by Old St. Patrick’s Catholic Church in Chicago IL and was started in Canada in 2016 by Dr. Terry Nelson-Johnson with the help of St. Anne’s Parish Tecumseh and Most Precious Blood Parish in Windsor.
Our hope is that, together, we can rediscover what often eludes us, but what God wants us to know: that we are Beloved! We offer a safe, open and inclusive environment in a quiet, pastoral setting where you can explore your relationship with God and yourself.
Following the retreat, you will have opportunities to stay in touch through Legacy Dinners, Small Group Faith Sharing and annual events — to help us stay connected and to deepen our roots as a community of believers.
The Beloved Retreat is an interactive weekend retreat experience (Friday evening to Sunday afternoon) inviting participants to contemplate the unlikely, giddy, and provocative prospect that we are actually passionately Loved by God. More than 1,900 people have participated in the Retreat during the course of the last eighteen years. In Canada the Retreat is held two times a year and welcomes retreatants whose demographics are, gratefully, very diverse: single and married; long standing Church members, and those who have never crossed the threshold of a church; young people and “seasoned veterans;” “practicing” Catholics, alienated Catholics, hurt Catholics, “iffy” Catholics and sisters and brothers from other religious traditions. The retreat has proved to be invigorating, healing, transformative, provocative and comforting for many. Please consider joining us!
