Ladies Guild Retreat

Check back here for Retreat Registration Form - Available July 15, 2022-September 16, 2022. 

Welcome!

Ladies, it is time to gather together to seek the grace of Our Lord, Jesus Christ, and rekindle the fire in our hearts as Catholic women, renew friendships and make new ones. 

The St. Francis of the Tejas Catholic Church Ladies Guild cordially invites Catholic women, especially ladies of the Diocese of Tyler's Southwest Deanery, to share in a one-day retreat for prayer, fellowship, and education - "Lessons from Mary and Martha".

Please read the following, including our "Cancellation Policy", carefully and completely before registering for the Retreat!

Our guest speakers, Dr. Stacy Trasancos, former Executive Director of the St. Philip Institute, Diocese of Tyler, and Stacy Farquharson, will be speaking on "Lessons from Mary and Martha". These two ladies are now "Stacy & Stacy", a dynamic team you will enjoy!

Registration
Pre-registration is required for this event - registration the day of the Retreat will not be available!
Retreat registration is open from July 15, 2022 through September 16, 2022 or until seating capacity has been exhausted, whichever happens first! Seating capacity is limited to 90 people (round table style, 6 per table).
The registration fee of $25.00 per person includes the morning hospitality bar during check-in, buffet-style lunch, access to all Retreat activities, and refreshments during the Retreat. Full payment must be submitted with a registration form to reserve a seat. Please do not register multiple persons on a single registration form - register one person to one form whether online or by mail.

Seating is reserved on a first-come, first serve basis; we strongly recommend registering early using online registration, to ensure a seat is reserved for you. Our online registration and payment function accepts credit and debit cards, and eChecks; registration payments are processed by the same company we regularly use for online giving – it is secure and easy to use. And you will get immediate confirmation of payment and registration for the Retreat by email!!

Registration is available online or by mail. However, if you choose to register by mail -
1. We cannot guarantee a seat until your registration form with full payment has been received and we can confirm seating space is available at that time.
2. Mail-in registrations must be received by the St. Francis of the Tejas office no later than September 16, 2022. Please check our website – stfranciscrockett.com – to ensure registration remains open before mailing your check and registration form!
3. To register by mail, print the registration form (available here on July 15, 2022), attach a check for the $25.00 registration fee and mail both to St. Francis of the Tejas Catholic Church, 609 North 4th St., Crockett, TX 75835. Write the word "Retreat" clearly in the lower right-hand corner of the envelope. When the registration with accompanying fee is received, we will contact you, as soon as possible, to confirm whether or not you have a reserved seat. 

Again, we strongly recommend registering early using online registration to reserve your seat!
