“In days to come, The mountain of the LORD'S house shall raise above the hills. All nations shall stream toward it;  many peoples shall come and say: "Come, let us climb the LORD'S mountain, to the house of the God of Jacob, That he may instruct us in his ways, and we may walk in his paths." For from Zion shall go forth instruction, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.”  Isaiah 2:3

 

Welcome to All

 Notre Dame Retreat House is a holy place where people come to reflect on life and their relationship with God.  ALL are welcome to spend some time away with the LORD who speaks to our hearts and instructs us in his ways. Whether frequent visitors, or new to our House, whether youths, young adults, or regular folk, all will feel welcomed by our staff. Through the discipline of retreats, numerous people have been revitalized, and returned to parish and family life with greater enthusiasm and purpose.

 We also welcome the use of our accommodations by other religious communities, educational institutions, hospitals, community/medical support groups and various organizations. We feel that our facilities can make your meetings and conferences more productive and consequential. We are ready to assist you in your efforts.

 The Retreat House is run by the Redemptorist Congregation, primarily as a ministry, to offer retreat experiences for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rochester. We have served the Finger Lakes Region for over eighty years, and since 1967 here in Canandaigua.
