Restored Retreat

There are many reasons people choose to attend Restored. Some are hurting and desire healing. Some are discouraged and seek encouragement and hope. Some are lonely and seek community. Some simply want to learn more about their faith. Some want to grow in their life of prayer. Some know that they are seeking something, but really don't know what it is. Some are looking for guidance. Some have questions. Some have never been to a retreat and want to try it, and some have been on retreats before and are ready for another one. All are welcome!

Whatever the reason someone comes to Restored, the Lord has something special and unique in store for each individual who participates. At previous retreats, He has brought about healing to those who need it, clarity where there was confusion, deeper prayer lives, joy in community, beautiful friendships, encouragement for marriages and parenting, reconciliation, and So. Much. More.

Come see for yourself!

Any adults age 21 and older are welcome at Restored. Restored is open to men, women, single people, married couples, Catholics, non-Catholics, clergy, religious, young adults, middle adults, older adults... All are welcome! 

Please note: infants under the age of 1 are welcome with their parent(s) at Restored, but we ask that you please let us know that you will be bringing a baby when you register.

While priority is given to those who reside within the Diocese of Duluth, we are happy to welcome those who reside outside the Diocese to join us whenever possible. When you click on the registration link above, it will lead to the registration page, which includes two registrations options. One option is for diocesan residents and the other option is for non-diocesan residents. This link will allow you to register for the waiting list if there are no non-resident spaces remaining. If we have space at the retreat for those on the waiting list, you will be contacted by our office.

Yes, if you have attended Restored, you may attend again.  We encourage you to bring someone new, too!  New attendees can receive a $20 discount!

The cost of the weekend varies according to the type of accommodation selected and whether you are attending as a single person or as a married person attending with your spouse. The rate you choose corresponds with the amount you pay for the privacy you prefer.  Please see the February/March Rates and Registration Information sheet for pricing information.

If you are interested in applying for a scholarship to help with the cost of attending the Restored Retreat, please click here to fill out the scholarship application.

Decisions on scholarships will be made based on date of submission of the application, with priority going to those who have never attended the retreat previously. All decisions will be made by the Restored financial committee. Please note that scholarship funds are limited and it is unlikely that scholarships for the total registration cost will be available.

Check-in is Friday, February 28th between 5:00pm and 6:45pm.  The retreat will begin at 7:00pm.
Please note that supper will not be provided Friday night.  If you do not pick up food on your way into town, there are a couple restaurants within 10 miles.

The retreat schedule is a full one, providing both scheduled and unscheduled time. The scheduled time will include presentations, discussion, reflection, and prayer and the unscheduled time will provide for rest, recreation, and opportunities for fellowship. Unscheduled times will be at the beginning of the days, end of the days, and for a longer time on Saturday afternoon. There will be times in the weekend when you are asked to be at specific things, and other times when you are free to choose what you would like to do at that time. 

Check-out will be at 12:00 noon on Sunday, March 2nd.  We will have brunch earlier that day.
