Christ Renews His Parish Men's Retreat

Our next Christ Renews His Parish Men's Retreat will be January 17–18, 2026!

Thank you to all the men who attended the Christ Renews His Parish Retreat January 25–26, 2025! It was a wonderful weekend of faith sharing, fellowship, and prayer. May this powerful weekend continue to bear fruit for the glory of God!

The Mission of Christ Renews His Parish (CRHP)

Christ Renews His Parish exists so that Catholic men can be healed by Jesus Christ, form a brotherhood of disciples, and lead our family, friends, and community to become saints.

Who should come to CRHP?

Any male parishioner 21+ who is interested making a deeper connection to their faith and the Holy Face of Jesus Parish community should come. Currently, we are only holding men’s retreats. No matter your stage in life, all men are welcome to rest, renew, and recharge their faith.

What can I expect at CRHP?

CRHP goes from Saturday morning to Sunday afternoon and will be held in the St. Joseph Hall at St. Joseph. Everyone is encouraged to stay overnight Saturday evening, but it is not required. Meals and refreshments are provided throughout the weekend. Several talks from parishioners like you will be given to encourage you on your faith journey. Small-group discussions will foster a sense of belonging, along with casual conversation opportunities. There will be times for personal reflection, receiving the sacraments, and prayer.

“Bad times, hard times, this is what people keep saying;
but let us live well, and times shall be good.
We are the times: Such as we are, such are the times.”
