2024 Women’s Retreat

“Living as a Joyful Daughter of God”

The Ladies Auxiliary of St. Mary’s Kutztown gathered on Saturday, April 27, 2024 9:30am to 3:00pm, at the Alvernia University McGlinn Conference & Spirituality Center in Reading.

What is joy and how are we called to rejoice?

This retreat focused on the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary, and St. Paul’s Letter to the Romans, as inspirations and instructions to live a life of joy.
