Saint
Camillus Retreat
November 20 – 22, 2009
Attleboro, MAOnce
again it’s time to make your reservation for the annual Saint
Camillus/La Salette Retreat for compulsive gamblers. The retreat
will be held on Friday, November 20th to Sunday, November 22nd.
This is the weekend before Thanksgiving and it will be held at
the La Salette Center for Christian Living in Attleboro,
Massachusetts.
The La Salette Retreat Center is a modern retreat house with 54
single rooms. Each two rooms are joined by a semi-private bath
facility. Our meeting rooms are comfortable, and our Chapel
embraces an experience of God present in nature. We are situated
on spacious and well-landscaped grounds, which are conducive to
prayerful walks and exercise.
Last year there were over 50 individuals that attended the
retreat, and we are continuing to grow. For this reason we
suggest you make your reservation early, rather than waiting
until the last minute. (Please note rooms will be given out on a
first come first served basis.)
The annual retreat is an excellent opportunity to enrich and
deepen your recovery. You can spend peaceful
time in quiet thought and meditation, as well as attend any or
all of the topic meetings throughout the weekend. The serene and
spiritual atmosphere can serve as a wonderful
preparation for the holiday season. The retreat
weekend begins with registration starting at 4 p.m. on Friday,
followed by a welcoming presentation at 7:30 p.m., topped off
with a pizza party later that evening.
For those who want to kick things off a little early this year,
there will be a golf outing on Friday, November
20th. “T” time
will be at 10:00 a.m. Contact a retreat promoter below for more
information.
This is the 22nd annual Saint Camillus/La Salette Retreat
in the New England area and we urge you to tell other program
members and give them a copy of the registration form. Like so
many other aspects of our recovery, it becomes even more
rewarding when we pass it on to others who can benefit from the
retreat.
The cost this year is
$185 per person. Your registration fee
includes a room for Friday and Saturday nights, a pizza party
late Friday night, three meals on Saturday, an ice cream party and breakfast on
Sunday.
Due to a change in policy of the Retreat House, PAYMENT
IN FULL IS REQUIRED along with your application. In order
to make final plans, it would be greatly appreciated if your
check and application could be received by October 15th.
