Last winter, The Holy Name Society of St. Mary’s organized a men's retreat at Malvern Retreat House. Over 70 men participated, and all found it to be spiritually uplifting. In 2025 the Holy Name Society, in conjunction with the Confraternity of Christian Mothers, are planning both a men’s and women’s retreat. It will remain as a weekend retreat with arrival on Friday evening and departure Sunday morning with an outside FSSP priest as the retreat master. The retreats are still in the planning phase. There are about 70 rooms for the women’s retreat and 140 rooms for the men’s retreat. The cost is expected to remain the same at $325. Please do NOT contact Malvern Retreat House to register. All registration has to be done through St. Mary’s Holy Name Society and the Confraternity of Christian Mothers. Registration is expected to begin in late August. More details to come.
