Emmaus 2025

A Retreat For LGBTQ+ Christians and For Family & Friends of LGBTQ+ Christians.

EMMAUS: 2025 is the twenty-sixth annual retreat for LGBTQ+ Christians at Jesuit Retreat Center.

LUKE 24: 13-35 tells us that two of Jesus’ disciples met Him on the road to the village of Emmaus. The encounter renewed their hopes and sense of mission. LGBTQ+ Christians continue to meet Jesus as they journey to the Kingdom. The Emmaus retreat is a time to encounter Christ and to share the journey together.

Come and meet other LGBTQ+ men and women, supportive and knowledgeable religious and parents of gay children. Mingle with a friendly group in a structured and non-structured setting knowing that your privacy is important. Feel comfortable to celebrate and share your journey and outlook or listen to others in a fun, reflective and prayerful atmosphere.

Facilitated by Fr. Steve Krupa, SJ, Sister Marian Durkin and a planning team.

Program begins at 9:00am. Arrive 8:30am for a continental breakfast.

Please register by Friday, October 3, 2025.
