Please join us for a one-day retreat focused on the fact that life for your child has changed, not ended. All parents who have lost children at any age, for any reason, no matter how long ago, are invited to attend.

The day includes speakers, quiet reflection, creative activities, Adoration, and time to share your own experience with other parents who understand. It is free to attend and all meals and materials are provided to you. Free will donation accepted.

Speakers: Mark Osborn lost his son, Sam, to muscular dystrophy four years ago. His journey through grief found him walking the Camino de Santiago in honor of his son. Hear from Mark what he has learned about grief and healing from a parent's perspective.

Deacon Jim Tardy is a Deacon of the Archdiocese of Omaha, where he works with Catholic Cemeteries as a grief counselor and outreach manager. After losing his wife, Virginia, suddenly, Deacon Tardy learned important lessons through his own grief, which led to a new ministry. He developed a path to healing by meditating on the Stations of the Cross. Known as "The Way Through Grief," his program has helped many learn how to lean on Jesus and their faith as they carry their own pain.

As the Church and humanity continue to experience an increase of attacks from evil forces in an unprecedented way, we the faithful resort to our beloved Blessed Mother's powerful intercession on our behalf.

We stand with our Lord Jesus and our Lady as we pray for our families, our children, our youth, our country, and all nations.

We gather and pray peacefully in reparation for the sins of contraception, abortion, euthanasia, immorality, and all offenses against the dignity of the person, family, and marriage. We pray for our Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, for the preservation of its Magisterial teaching in steadfast fidelity to Jesus in tradition and practice. We pray for the priesthood. We pray for purity and chastity in mind, body, heart, and souls and for all those suffering persecutions.

Join us for the annual St. James/Seton Catholic School SOAR Development Dinner, an evening celebrating and supporting our SJS community. Proceeds from SOAR help provide tuition assistance, keep Catholic education affordable for our families, and support important improvements to our school.

Enjoy a great evening with friends, food, fellowship, auctions, and opportunities to support the students and future of SJS.

It starts with a stirring…an ache.…a longing to withdraw from the everyday routine and grow closer to Our Lord. Our Blessed Mother invites you to visit one of the most spiritual and peaceful places on the planet, a place of spiritual growth and conversion where she still appears today. The visionaries tell us that no one goes to Medjugorje by accident.

You are invited to participate in a life-changing pilgrimage to Medjugorje (in Bosnia-Herzegovina) from April 5-15, 2027. We will stay at the Two Hearts Hotel near the Blue Cross and Apparition Hill for all nine nights. Our Spiritual Director is Father Tom Weisbecker, Pastor of St. James in Omaha. Our registered group leader is Jolene Jefferies, Parish Manager of St. Patrick in Gretna.
