October Retreat at Glenstal Abbey:

Dying to Live – October 31st
What matters most?
What keeps us from becoming fully alive?
What does it actually mean to live well?
Saint Benedict offered a surprising tool for finding peace, purpose, and profound joy:
“Keep death daily before your eyes.”
This is not a retreat about gloom or fear. It is a day dedicated to the art of truly living. By gently confronting our limitations, we learn to strip away superficial anxieties, silence the ego, and discover what genuinely matters.
Join us on October 31st as we step away from the relentless noise of modern life.
Through Benedictine wisdom, quiet reflection, and community fellowship, you will learn to trade daily distractions for eternal priorities.
