Retreat - When I Can't Pray

November 6 - November 8

Learning to Pray with Your Whole Person

November 6–8 | Mount Carmel Spirituality Centre

There are times when prayer feels difficult, distant, or simply beyond words. This spiritual retreat invites you to step away from the demands of everyday life and rediscover prayer as a way of reconnecting with God—with your whole person.

Join us for a weekend of spiritual growth, reflection, and renewal with Rev. Dr. Rudolf Valerian D’Souza, who will guide participants in exploring a deeper and more personal life of prayer.

A Weekend of Prayer and Renewal

The retreat will include:

Holy Mass and Eucharistic Adoration
Inspiring conferences
Confession and healing sessions
Time for silent reflection
Opportunities for personal prayer and spiritual renewal

Come with your questions, hopes, struggles, and desire to draw closer to God. Take time to slow down, listen, reflect, and allow God to renew your heart.

Featured Preacher

Rev. Dr. Rudolf Valerian D’Souza

Rev. Dr. D’Souza holds a Doctorate in Theology with a specialization in Spirituality, earned Summa cum Laude in Rome.
