  • Welcome to Franciscan Retreats and Spirituality Center in Prior Lake MN

    • Entry sign on the driveway leading in to Franciscan Retreats and Spirituality Center - Catholic Spiritual Retreats in Prior Lake MNFranciscan Retreats and Spirituality Center is a spiritual oasis for anyone looking to explore their relationship with the Almighty.  We hold weekend or midweek Catholic Spiritual Retreats attended by individuals or friends. Retreats feature a fruitful blend of scheduled time to open time allowing retreatants to recharge mentally, spiritually and physically. Most of our Catholic Spiritual Retreats involve two or three-night stays, although we also feature single-day Lenten or Advent Days of Prayer.

      Four conference talks inspired by a relevant annual theme lead retreatants on an experience of discovery, rejuvenation and spiritual growth. Generous open periods between conference talks allow for reflection, prayer, spirited hikes on 60 acres of forest and prairie, or simply resting in your private room.  Retreats also include guided prayer sessions, one on one spiritual direction, plus the opportunity for unhurried confession, holy hour and anointing. All meals are cooked lovingly on-site.

      Franciscan Retreats are Catholic-based and open to all spiritual seekers at any stage of their faith journey.

  • What Retreatants Say

    • “Slept very well in my room. The liturgies were healing and my soul is restored. I feel forgiven. Maybe now I can be more compassionate to others and less judgmental.”
