Columbus Day Weekend on Retreat

A group of our seminarians went on a retreat to Lourdes Shrine run by the Montfort Missionaries in Litchfield, Connecticut this weekend. "It was a wonderful time -- very prayerful, as well as a great place to relax!" Here are some photos of this great weekend with Jim Davila, John Gancarz, Jerwin Penido, Michael Rora, Brendan Rowley, Joseph Sanderson and Josh Wilbur!

Pope Saint John Paul II and Pope Benedict both appointed him as a Consultor to the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments in Rome and as Executive Director of the Vox Clara Committee.
