Were You There: Following Jesus from the Upper Room to the Empty Tomb

During the three days of the Triduum retreat, we will follow Jesus’ journey of crucified love through imaginative, prayerful reflections and liturgical celebrations. In the Upper Room, he teaches us how to be a servant leader. In the Gethsemane Garden, he guides us in the way of yielding to his Father’s desire, “Thy will be done.” Through the streets of Jerusalem to Mount Calvary, he shows us the blueprint of ‘no greater love’ as we observe the sufferings of a man crowned with thorns, beaten and assaulted, while carrying the cross of his own crucifixion. Throughout this retreat experience, we will personally encounter Jesus in these events as we prayerfully enter the biblical narrative. Ultimately, we will embrace a deeper level of comprehending the teaching that “No one shows greater love than when he lays down his life for his friends.” Our time together will culminate on Easter Sunday morning, when everything is turned upside down in the unprecedented event of the resurrection.

This is a silent retreat. Silence is kept from after dinner on Thursday until after the Easter Vigil on Saturday evening. The retreat will begin on Thursday at 4:30pm and will end with lunch after Mass on Easter Sunday.

A COMMUTER OPTION is also available. The commuter option costs $255 and includes everything except for lodging and breakfast. Call the Welcome Center at 410-442-3120 to register for the Triduum Retreat Commuter Option.
