The following is a list of what has worked in parishes in sharing the good news about Holy Family retreats. E-mail us your suggestions of what has worked in your parish.

• Promote ALL Holy Family programs, including days and evenings of reflection, women's retreats, concerts, and our thriving youth ministry.
• Use the BULLETIN as often and early as you can.
• Encourage the women in your parish to invite their husbands, sons, and fathers to attend retreats.
• Use Holy Family's promotional video. Click here to request the video.
• Use this website  to share Holy Family with those who have never been here. Email the Holy Family link to all those in your e-mail address book.
• Ask your pastor or deacon to encourage men to go on retreat from the pulpit.
• Invite your pastor to spend an overnight with the retreatants at Holy Family.  We'll give him a special room with a bathroom.
• Make a short presentation to parish groups using the Holy Family video, e.g., Parish Council, Eucharistic Ministers, Lectors, Knights of Columbus, Women's Club, etc.
• Invite people who have never been on retreat to an evening of reflection or a concert.
• Print formal invitations to a retreat and send them to all the men/women of your parish.
• Never give up!!! Some men come on retreat after having been invited annually for ten years or more.
• Invite sons to come on retreat for father-son bonding.
• Use the press release on this website to send information about your retreat to local newspapers, which will often list current events for free.
• Contact us if you need any printed materials. There's always extra if you need it.
• Plan an alternate weekend retreat date for your parish for those who cannot attend the primary date.
• Never let MONEY stand in the way of making a retreat.  All our donations are anonymous, and we mean it when we say MORE IF YOU CAN, LESS IF YOU CAN'T.
