Merry Christmas and Happy Epiphany from the Sacred Heart Retreat Center. This season has been a joyous occasion here as we continue to progress towards the opening of this retreat center in honor of our Divine Infant King's Most Sacred Heart. During the past month, we have been able to finish an area on the ground floor called "The Hermitage" and the area directly above it on the main floor. In total this gave us four offices, four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a living/dining room. Having these two areas finished has given the resident clergy a place to call home outside of the future construction zone. It has also better facilitated their community life having a completed space from which they can continue to live out the charism of the Institute of Christ the King more fully. It was all done in time to even receive the Epiphany blessing! Deo gratias!
There are several big and exciting projects lined up for the month ahead. We thank you once again for all of your support to get us to this point. We are most grateful for your generosity, and we ask you to keep this endeavor in your prayers. Please spread the word of this wonderful project, and help us gain more support so we may open our doors for the greater glory of God!
