RESPECT LIFE…

Pregnant and Afraid? —Call outreach program to provide assistance for an unex-

pected or crisis pregnancy call 1 (855) 301-4CHS (Catholic

Health Services of Long Island) or visit www.chsli.org/

pregnancy-support-services.

—Call the 24-hour National Hotline 1-800-712-HELP (4357)

or visit OPTIONLINE.ORG for Pregnancy Options & Re-

sources.

—A woman or couple facing an unexpected pregnancy may

feel anxious and overwhelmed, with a multitude of worries. It

may be a single woman who had very different plans for her

future, a teenager wondering how she will tell her family or a

couple already struggling to make ends meet. All too often,

those in this situations feel pressure from friends, family mem-

bers and others to terminate their pregnancy.

In these circumstances, it may seem as if abortion is

the only option. Organizations offering prolife alternatives are

currently less coordinated than abortion providers, who extend

what appears to be an easy solution. However, the truth is that

there are many resources available to help expectant mothers

and their families.

Seeing Jesus Transfigured made Peter want to do something to

mark the event. But the Voice from the cloud said clearly that

the first task of those who recognize Jesus as Lord is to listen

to Jesus - and then act!

GENNESARET A RETREAT EXPERIENCE FOR THE SERIOUSLY ILL

September 22nd, 23rd, & 24th, 2017

“After making the crossing they came ashore at

Gennesaret...the crowds scurried...to bring in the sick…

to the place where they heard He was…”

Mark 6:53

THE CARE:

Many gentle and attentive volunteer health care professionals are available to you during

the weekend to help see that your medical needs are met. Along with our priest and medical

team, additional volunteers are there to assist you to help make your weekend comfortable.

THE PLACE:

Montfort Spiritual Center is located in Bay Shore, New York on the south shore of Long

Island. It is situated on the Awixia Creek and Pond and is surrounded by fields and meadows.

It is a place of quiet and reflection that both nurtures and renews one’s spirit. It is fully accessi-

ble to the handicapped and we can provide some equipment that you may need during the

weekend. There are semi-private bedrooms with views overlooking Montfort’s spacious prop-

erty. The Chapel is beautiful and peaceful.

THE PROGRAM:

The retreat weekend schedule is designed to celebrate the love of the Lord,

Jesus Christ through prayer times, talks by our priest directors, quiet time and ample periods

of rest. It begins on Friday afternoon at 1:30PM and ends early Sunday afternoon. There is

time for sharing, celebrating, prayer — together and alone.

THE DETAILS:

There is no cost to you for this retreat. Expenses are paid through the generosity of

individuals, parishes and church communities who value retreat experiences.

Detailed directions are available by calling us. And, as we already stated,

it is conveniently located on Long Island’s south shore.

If you would like to make the retreat, contact us at the number listed below. We will be

happy to talk to you about your needs and help plan for your retreat.
