Totus Tuus

A women’s retreat for Reform Graduates

May 19 — 22, 2022

The Invitation to Retreat

 Wholiness takes root and bears fruit when we live with Christ at the center—when we make intentional daily choices for our physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. With Mary as our intercessor, we will seek the fastest, surest way to the Divine Healer in communion with the Reform community. Together, let’s embrace Mary’s maternal tenderness and devotion so she can love us, nurture us, protect us, and intercede for us.

“Let us run to Mary, and, as her little children, cast ourselves into her arms with perfect confidence.”

— St. Francis de Sales

Rest Under Mary’s Mantle

 The Totus Tuus Retreat is an opportunity to rest, refocus, and restore your foundation in Christ. For three days, we invite you to live out the nine Wellness Pillars in community with other Reformers and learn directly from our team leaders how you can pursue wholiness in everyday life. Each day will include opportunities for rest, prayer, fellowship, and more:

  • Enjoy a four-day, three-night stay (private room & bathroom)

  • Be nourished with delicious meals each day from a gluten-free menu

  • Spend hours dedicated to prayer and personal reflection

  • Take opportunities to move and relax in nature 

  • Learn, laugh, and heal through community activities and fellowship with other Reformers 

  • Offer your burdens to Christ and rest through Mass and the sacraments

Rest, Restore, Reform

Each day, Christ invites us to come and rest at His feet, to accept the grace and gifts of freedom He offers us. We invite you to step away from the ordinary routine and, like Mary, to accept His invitation to rest and be restored in Him.
