Divine Mercy Encounter
DME is a three-day retreat program. Each day has a different focus: Friday is the Day of Invitation, focusing on how God is inviting us into relationship. Saturday is the Day of Encounter, where we encounter God through the sacraments, Adoration, and others. Sunday is the Day of Commission, where we as a community are empowered to evangelize and share our faith.
The weekend includes talks, exposure to different types of prayer, Mass, community, and much more. The weekend runs from 10 a.m. on Friday to 5 p.m. on Sunday, and retreat participants stay onsite for the weekend. If you have any questions or would like to apply, go to https://www.divinemercyencounter.com or call/text Jo Feeney at (724) 699-3340.
