About MDR

Montreal Directed Retreats is a dedicated group of experienced spiritual directors who give freely of their time and gifts to offer personally directed weekend retreats to persons from every walk of life.

Every year we hold six retreats, with a maximum number of 22 participants and six directors. Our goal is to give each retreatant the personal attention he or she needs to re-focus prayer and to face current life issues. Presently we number 18 active directors, and we have others we can call upon as need arises. Our directors are from Catholic and Anglican traditions, although our retreats are open to people of all faiths.

The addition of French- and Spanish-speaking directors over the past years has enabled us to welcome other language groups into our retreat setting. We recently celebrated an important milestone: in 1999, Montreal Directed Retreats had been serving the spiritual needs of the christian people of Greater Montreal for a quarter century. We rejoice in the great blessing this work has been to God's people -- and to us, too!
