The saints have left us more than inspiring stories. They have left us a treasury of wisdom about what it means to know Christ, follow Him, and become holy in the middle of ordinary life.

Throughout this retreat, we will encounter different saints through the teachings they have handed down to the Church. Each talk will introduce a saint, explore a particular piece of their spiritual wisdom, and help us discover how we can actually live it today.

We might learn how to recognize consolation and desolation with St. Ignatius of Loyola, discover simplicity in prayer through St. Thérèse of Lisieux, or learn what it means to remain joyful in suffering from a saint who lived it firsthand.

These aren't simply lessons from the past. They are invitations to discover that the same path to holiness walked by the saints is open to us today.
