We are glad to share the following news from the Institute of Christ the King. In May of 2023, the Institute acquired a friary in Burlington, Wisconsin, originally built by the Franciscans of the Assumption in 1931, expanded in 1952, which became a popular pilgrimage site. The facility has been extensively renovated as The Sacred Heart Retreat Center; its website is now active, and ready to receive registrations on its calendar of upcoming retreats. The programming for the coming months will consist of silent guided retreats for men or for women, following either a week-long schedule (Sunday evening through Saturday morning) or a long weekend (Friday evening through Monday morning). These retreats are interspersed among retreats for the canons of the Institute of Christ the King and other events for lay people which will be announced in the coming weeks. (Please note that that the center is not receiving anyone for private retreats at this time.)
