Taking Scripture as our guide, we will focus on Jesus’ call of the apostles to become His followers. We will consider how Jesus formed his followers into a community and helped them to grow in holiness through the process of conversion. We will see how Jesus continues to call men to communion, conversion and holiness today. If you are looking for a way to become the disciple Jesus has called you to be, Man Up! This retreat is for you.

Pope Francis in his usual inspiring, insightful and utterly practical way insists that each person is called by God to follow his or her own unique path to holiness according to the gifts that God has given. Calling the Beatitudes the Christian's "Identity Card," he says they can help us discern the Holy Spirit's movement and guidance in the depths of our heart. he makes us aware of the serious obstacles to holiness and how we need to address these. While holiness requires silence, solitude and constant prayer, it also sends us out in loving compassion and mercy to minister to poverty and injustice in our world.
