Spirit of Saragossa Retreat
The Spirit of Saragossa Retreat was developed in 2008 by an international team of Marianist brothers, sisters, and priests as an extended 30-day retreat experience for Marianist religious preparing for final vows. This retreat has been adapted for those who cannot get away for 30 days as a “retreat in daily life” where the retreatant continues in his or her daily life with a focused daily prayer time, along with weekly meetings with the retreat director over a period of four to six months.
