The Foyers of Charity offer a haven of peace for all couples who want to spend some time together before God: sweethearts discerning their future, engaged couples preparing for their marriage, married couples looking to take some time out or seeking inner renewal, etc.

Each weekend is based on a theme that relates to conjugal love.

In an atmosphere of silence and prayer, there is a series of teaching (theme-based lectures), reflection and couple dialogue sessions or sharing groups.

Treat yourself to a two-day retreat for a spiritual break to help your couple to grow in love.
In most cases, it is possible to welcome young children.

Why go on spiritual retreat ?

Whatever the reasons, the spiritual retreat is a breathing space in a setting that inspires inner reflection. The setting, silence and pace of the retreat give the participants the freedom to open up to themselves and to God.

A spiritual retreat is a break for the heart and the mind. It creates a breathing space for:

  • Relaxing, resting and finding comfort in the middle of our very busy lives;
  • Meeting with God in silence, reading his Word and rekindling the fire of our faith;
  • Reflecting on the meaning of our existence, taking a step back before making important choices;
  • Exploring the key questions of life and gaining a better understanding of the foundations of the Christian faith.
