The Nativity 33 Day Retreat Series Ministry offers small group online retreats that follow the 33 Day Retreat Series by Fr. Michael Gaitley and two retreats by Fr. Donald H. Calloway. We welcome you to join a 6-week small group retreat via Zoom. These are offered twice a year—in the Fall and Spring. Fr. Michael E. Gaitley’s book, 33 Days to Morning Glory, is one of the most popular Do-it-Yourself Catholic retreat books. His retreats have changed the spiritual lives of millions of people throughout the world. His trilogy of consecrations begins with Mary, learning from the devotions of four Marian Saints, then to Merciful Love, Jesus’ Divine Mercy as experienced by St. Therese, and to God the Father, according to the Gospel of John. Father Donald H. Calloway’s 33 Day Preparation for Consecration to St. Joseph reveals the wonders of our Spiritual Father while Fr. Calloway’s retreat, 30 Day Eucharistic Revival, shares St. Peter Julian Eymard’s writings and devotion to Jesus’ Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament.

The introductory meeting will be held on March 3, followed by retreat meetings on March 10, 17, 24, 31 and April 7. On Sunday, April 12, we will gather after the 5:30 pm Mass for a Consecration Ceremony and Reception. We ask each person to purchase their own book and to read the Introduction before the first meeting. The remaining daily readings will be read over the following 5 weeks.
