Fathers and Sons - Together Forever Retreat (22nd Annual)

This weekend – from 8 a.m. Saturday, July 11, to noon on Sunday, July 12 – is about spending quality time together as father and son.

The focus is on the relationship between fathers and their sons in the context of being Catholic. A strong focus is on how to improve communication between fathers and their sons.

There are 30-minute talks followed by one-on-one talking together time. In addition, there is opportunity for prayer, Adoration, Reconciliation, Benediction, and Mass.

In-between these opportunities, there is fathers-against-sons dodgeball, water balloon competition, hayrack ride, and game night. Lastly, there is great all-you-can-eat home cooking!

The common theme for the weekend is "what does it mean to be a Catholic man for both fathers and sons."

Open to sons ages 11-17. We encourage anyone who plays an important part in a boy's life to attend, especially when there is no father present. This includes grandfathers (we have 1 or 2 attend each year), stepfathers, foster fathers, and any man who is an important part of a boy's life. Consider bringing him to the retreat to enhance your relationship and communication with him.
