Women of all ages are invited to participate in a retreat titled "There's Always More with God," organized by the Marian Sisters of the Diocese of Lincoln. Scheduled for December 6-8, the event aims to provide attendees with an opportunity for rest, reflection, and spiritual growth.

Sister Amy Marie shared that the retreat is inspired by their experiences as Marian Sisters. “We have felt abundantly blessed as Marian Sisters through the many opportunities we’ve been given to grow in our relationship with Christ and His Church,” she stated. The sisters hope to give back to their Catholic community what they have received during their formation.

The retreat will feature talks by the Marian Sisters and include daily Holy Mass, confession opportunities, prayer time, and moments for personal reflection. A priest will be present to support participants' sacramental needs.

Sister Amy Marie highlighted that routines can sometimes lead people to think they have already explored certain themes or scriptures. She emphasized, “Our Lord is never outdone in His generosity!” The retreat seeks to offer a space where attendees can receive more from their relationship with God.

Beginning on Friday evening with check-in at 6 p.m., followed by an optional First Friday Mass at 6:30 p.m., the first conference session starts at 7:15 p.m. Throughout the weekend, participants will engage in sacraments and contemplative prayer aimed at deepening their connection with Christ.

The event concludes on Sunday morning with Mass and a final brunch at 11 a.m., encouraging women to embrace this period of renewal guided by the Marian Sisters.

Other retreats scheduled at Our Lady of Good Counsel include “Our Lady’s Promises and Protection” led by Father Elias Mary Mills from November 22-24; “Men’s Spiritual Exercises” hosted by Regnum Christi from December 12-15; and “O Holy Night” conducted by Father Gary Coulter on December 20-21. In January 2025, the winter symposium for the Lincoln Diocese Council of Catholic Women (LDCCW) is set for January 10-11. Registration details are available at goodcounselretreat.org or via phone at 402-786-2705.
