Jesuit House in Oshkosh is great for silent retreats!

A silent retreat, a quiet time away, is ready for you at the JESUIT HOUSE in Oshkosh. By stepping away from conversations, screens, and outside distractions, you create sacred space to listen deeply…to God and to your own soul.

The weekend consists of multiple talks, Mass, opportunities for Reconciliation, and a healing prayer service. A private room, delicious meals, and beautiful grounds add to an amazing time away. 

Check out the schedule for upcoming silent retreats by clicking here.
