A retreat with St. John Neumann

Eight young men discerning a call to the religious life participated in a vocations retreat last weekend at the Shrine of St. John Neumann in Philadelphia. In addition to talks, a tour of (snowy) historic Philadelphia, and time to just hang out, the retreatants had the special privilege of praying before the remains of St. John Neumann, the fourth bishop of Philadelphia and the first Redemptorist to profess vows in the United States.

Please keep these men in your prayers, and join us in praying with St. John Neumann that more young men will listen to God’s call to serve the poor and most abandoned as Redemptorist priests and brothers.
