Retreat Days & Spiritual Exercises
Exercises for Men and Women
Exercises in Werdenfels „Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20). These exercises are a good opportunity to prepare our hearts for the arrival of Jesus and to bring hope and joy to the world. This offer is aimed at women, men, and couples who seek spiritual replenishment and an encounter with God. Exercises are a time when one can leave behind the hustle and bustle of everyday life to encounter the love, peace, and mercy of Jesus in a new way. Program & Content These exercises include time for silent prayer, eucharistic adoration, the holy Mass, opportunity for conversation / confession, and lectures. Jesus invites us to get to know him more intimately, so that we may love him more and follow him better. The exercises will be led by Fr. Joachim Richter LC, who has gathered many years of experience in the spiritual life and offers support throughout the entire duration of the exercises. Everyone is warmly invited to participate in these days to strengthen their faith and their relationship with Christ. We encourage participants to bring friends or acquaintances or to invite someone who may not have been in church for a while to share the experience of the exercises.

- New Year's Retreat for Youth
“The word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword!” (Heb 4:12) Starting the year with the most important thing! Learning to know and love Christ through the Word of God. Begin the year 2027 in prayer and personal encounter with God to draw strength and inspiration for the tasks and challenges of the new year. Focus of the retreat: “Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ,” teaches the Church Father Jerome. Conversely, Christ, who is the Word Himself, can be found in the Word of God. In these silent retreats following the methodology of St. Ignatius of Loyola, we seek a living access to God's Word, so that by listening to Holy Scripture, we may grow in personal knowledge and friendship with the Lord and also hear His call to discipleship in our own lives. The retreat helps you find answers to these questions: How can I hear God's voice through Holy Scripture? How does Holy Scripture lead me to the knowledge of Jesus? How are the Old and New Testaments connected? How do I find strength and inspiration for my life as a Christian in the Bible? Components of the retreat include: Bible meditations and time for personal prayer. Daily Holy Mass and Eucharistic Adoration. Silence and table readings during meals. Availability of confession and individual spiritual direction.
