Tolkien & Fatherhood Retreat

J.R.R. Tolkien is known for writing The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, but he was also a devout Catholic husband and father of four. This retreat for current and future Catholic dads will focus on three letters that Tolkien wrote to his son Michael, offering time for reflection, discussion, and prayer about what it means and how to be a Catholic father today. Mass, Adoration, and an opportunity for Confession will be included in the day's schedule. 

Cost for the day is $30.
