Do you desire to dive deeper into the freedom you were created for?

Do you feel restricted and bound by the knots of sin and shame that conceal the profound beauty of your feminine heart?

The John Paul II Healing Center's Undone - Women's Retreat is a retreat experience for women who desire healing, freedom, and deep transformation in their feminine identity. You will be immersed in truth and love in God's presence as the knots of Eve, planted in us through sin and shame, become Undone.

This retreat is for sisters, mothers, daughters, friends, or any woman who is seeking a deeper and more meaningful relationship with Mary Our Mother, and the Most Holy Trinity. The weekend includes Adoration, time for prayer, worship, small group discussion, interactive and guided meditation, and much more.

  What are the topics of the Sessions?

Topics are grounded on scripture and Church Teaching

  • The Consummate Creation
  • The Tangled Truth
  • Untying the Knot
  • Living Undone
  Do I need to attend all of the sessions?

Ideally, participants will attend all sessions, as each session contains unique teachings and experiences which build upon previous sessions. However, if you should have to miss a session, you can still come to the remaining sessions. 

Your registration covers all sessions. As they seek to accomodate thousands of participants throughout the year, the JPII Healing Center is not able to offer a reduced registration rate for partial attendance.

All in-person registrants will receive access to the live-streamed virtual sessions for free. Videos of the live-streamed sessions for Undone are available for two weeks after the event. 

  Who's putting this on?

  Is this really Catholic?

The Lord Jesus Christ, physician of our souls and bodies, who forgave the sins of the paralytic and restored him to bodily health, has willed that his Church continue, in the power of the Holy Spirit, his work of healing and salvation, even among her own members.
Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1421

Healing is an essential dimension of the apostolic mission and of Christianity.
– Pope Benedict, Jesus of Nazareth 

As disciples of the Lord Jesus, who is the physician of our souls and bodies, we are called to continue His work, work of healing and salvation in a physical, social and spiritual sense.”
– Pope Francis, General Audience, August 5, 2020

The Archdiocesan Office of Evangelization & Catechesis and the John Paul II Healing Center are fully committed to faithfulness to the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church.

  Will I be expected to share the details of my personal life on this retreat?

No.

Each session begins with an opening prayer and some music, followed by teaching from a speaker, quiet time for personal reflection and prayer, and a simple shared prayer experience as a large group. There are several times throughout the retreat where you will have the opportunity to join a small group discussion either with women you come with or meet there. You are not required to participate in these small groups if you do not wish to participate.

Any sharing is purely voluntary. 

  Will there be video or pictures taken of me while I participate in Healing the Whole Person?

We will be live streaming our Healing the Whole Person for online participants.
