We invite you to come and see what it’s like to walk with the Sisters of St. Francis of the Neumann Communities. Discover how we strive to serve God by devoting ourselves to personal and communal prayer, living in a community and ministering with the poor.

Join with other single women and with our sisters for this 24-hour retreat filled with relaxation, reflection, prayer and exploration.

Retreats are offered at various locations around the United States over a Friday through Saturday. During your stay, you will have the opportunity to reside with a professed sister who will help to answer any of your questions about religious life with the Sisters of St. Francis. You will also have opportunities for spiritual direction and retreat experiences to integrate the values of community and spirituality, which will provide guidance and encouragement as you seek to make decisions about your own life.

We know you have many questions and encourage you to ask them all. So come join us and share your dreams for the future while discovering God’s calling for you!
