Retreats

The retreats we see at the Center are as varied as the people who attend them. There are spiritual retreats, youth retreats, staff retreats, planning retreats, educational and instructional ones, too. Yet, as different as each retreat is, most have basic similarities: fellowship, a relaxed atmosphere, inspiration, and renewal.
We realize retreats are not so much a time to get away, as a time to return to the core of things – to have time to think and talk and plan. We offer the peaceful, relaxed atmosphere needed to conduct successful retreats.
Both the Main Center and Saint Francis Retreat House are used by group or individual retreats. Saint Francis House offers a do-it-yourself retreat house with cooking and meeting facilities. The Main Center offers full service amenities so you don’t have to do anything but relax.

Conferences

The Catholic Conference Center is experienced in handling all types of conferences. We have a number of weeklong conferences each year ranging in size from 10 to 125 participants. Our day use conferences range in size from 10 to 250. We understand the commitment to detail that is required in making arrangements and processing registrations.
One of the benefits of holding a conference at the Center is that the participants have the time and opportunity to walk and enjoy our beautifully landscaped grounds and trails. With wayside chapels and areas of reflection, our guests have the setting in which to contemplate their personal and professional situations and enjoy getting to know one another. The distractions found in hotels or other facilities are not a problem at the Center, where our focus is on you.

Training

Many businesses and non-profits choose the Catholic Conference Center to conduct their employee training, certification, and staff development. Community colleges and universities have also discovered the advantage of getting away from the day-to-day distractions and sharpening their focus at a place apart from the usual settings. The center has access to trained facilitators in staff development, goal setting, and team building. If your organization needs some time away to rediscover its purpose or sharpen its focus, the center provides the environment to do just that.
