This year’s Retreat Theme is: “Where is God in all this mess?” We all have to deal with messes from global terrorists to family squabbles; from floods, quakes, and tornadoes to neighborhood parking, basement flooding, commuting congestion, emotional teens, aging parents, etc. etc. And so we ask, or grumble, or whine, or shout, or plead: “Where is God?” (“…when I need him?” is usually implied). 2010-2011 has been another good year for Bishop Molloy Retreat House. We intend to keep on building on our strengths as we continue to focus on increasing our numbers. . Fr. Michael Green, C.P. has joined the Bishop Molloy Team. He is excited about discovering how things have changed and sharing what he has learned since his last assignment here. He is a very welcome addition. . Sr. Joanne Fahey, C.P. and Dottie Brandreth, RN, MA will each assist in facilitating retreats throughout the year. John Gonzalez is hoping to be able to work with us at least some of the time. Fr. Chris has moved back into full time youth ministry and now resides in Immaculate Conception Monastery. He will be missed at BMRH! . After holding steady for many years we have increased our suggested retreat offering to $195.00. This is simply admitting our financial reality. It costs us $250.00 per retreatant! We continue to require a non-refundable deposit of $50.00 to hold a space for you.  Please, send your deposit along with a printable reservation form right now while you are thinking about it. . Can you invite someone new to come with you this year! Maybe this is the year when they might say “Yes” to your invitation! May our Crucified and Risen Lord be with you.    Fr. John M. Lee, CP Retreat House Director
