WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT DURING DIFFICULT TIMES
Do not anticipate the unpleasant events of this life by anxiety; rather anticipate them with the perfect hope that, as they happen, God, to whom you belong, will protect you. He has protected you up to the present moment; just remain firmly in the hands of His providence and He will help you in all situations and at those times when you find yourself unable to walk, He will carry you.

Advent Retreat at Wellspring
Saturday, December 5, 2020
9:30 am - 12:30 pm
Advent is a season of waiting, but often waiting - waiting in lines, traffic and crowds - can distract us from joyfully celebrating
the coming of our Lord. Join us at Wellspring as we reflect on
ways to grow in faith, hope, and love as we wait for the coming
of the Christ Child.
Due to COVID-19, there is limited space at the retreat.
Please email us at retreatsatwellspring@gmail.com
to reserve a space at the retreat.
All retreat participants are asked to wear a mask and
socially distance at the retreat.
Wellspring is a Catholic Center for Spirituality owned and operated by the Missionaries of St. Francis de Sales on fourteen acres of wooded property in Whitehouse, Texas. The purpose of the center is to offer spiritual growth opportunities such as retreats, spiritual direction and bible studies and to promote contemplative spirituality. Along with our weekly activities, Wellspring offers retreats to individuals, couples and groups. Both day and overnight retreats are offered. There are scheduled retreats at Wellspring throughout the year. Groups and individuals are invited to schedule private retreats. Fr. Augustine Tharappel (Fr. Gus) guides the group retreats at Wellspring and is available for spiritual direction for individuals on retreat. An oasis of peace and tranquility is available to all who come to Wellspring to meditate and spend time in retreat.
