The Power of Our Stories

Last year we hosted our first ever online retreat right before Holy Week and it was an incredible success. The team and I were blown away by the positive response to all the speakers, breakouts, prayer rooms, and presentations. Thousands of you showed up for the live keynotes and Q&As and listened to dozens of recorded talks.

This year, we’re doing it again—same format, new theme: “Ecce Homo: Conversion Stories and the Call to Prayer” happening live March 21-23, 2024.

I want to personally invite you to join me, Stephanie, and a gifted lineup of speakers and spiritual directors and enter into Holy Week renewed and inspired by the sheer power of story.

God reveals Himself so gloriously through our stories — the ways He provides, renews, redeems, uses all things for our good and His glory — these show us His mercy and goodness, in a way few other things can.

So register now to hear the personal witnesses of people such as Archbishop Joseph Naumann, Sr. Meredith of Christ Crucified, OCD, Monsignor Stephen Rossetti, Emily Wilson, Fr. Chase Hilgenbrinck, Ralph Martin, Lisa Brenninkmeyer, and Joseph Pearce.

Be encouraged through their stories of conversion or reconversion. Join in our prayer rooms and our spiritual direction Q&A sessions. Renew your commitment to prayer, and make Holy Week 2024 a pivotal part of your own ongoing conversion!

You can find more information and register here.

Reserve your seat today. I’ll see you then!

Yours in Him,

Dan Burke
