General Announcements 

June 16-18 retreat in Bloomington will focus on hearts of Jesus and Mary

A “Hearts of Jesus and Mary” retreat will take place at Mother of the Redeemer Retreat Center, 8220 W. State Road 48, in Bloomington, on June 16-18.

Once reserved to privileged souls, devotion to the hearts of Jesus and Mary became a mass phenomenon a few centuries ago, and received fresh impetus in the last century. The consideration of their love for us moves us to respond with love and to make reparation for those who do not.

The retreat will be led by Franciscans of the Immaculate Father John Lawrence Polis. Each day includes retreat sessions and the opportunity for Mass, confession, adoration and time for group and private prayer.

The cost is $50.70 for those ages 19 and older. Those ages 18 and younger may attend free with a parent. The cost includes Saturday lunch and dinner. Overnight accommodations are available for an additional cost.

For more information or to register, call 812-825-4642, ext. 1.
