Many of us also like the experience of an occasional retreat from the outside world where we can quiet down for an undisturbed day or so of self-overhaul and meditation.-The Twelve and Twelve

At Holy Family, we invite you into a peaceful atmosphere where you can relax and think about your recovery. Our Matt Talbot weekends are open to ALL people, from ALL backgrounds, regardless of whether or not you are a member of a church.

People who attend Matt Talbot retreats have an honest desire to stay sober, but are often plagued by some of the following problems:

• I'm having trouble with the spiritual side of the twelve-step program.
• I'd like to have a Higher Power working in my life, but I don't know how to do this.
• I ask my Higher Power for guidance every morning, yet I'm not happy and I show no improvement in my behavior and my thinking. What am I doing wrong?
• I'd like to work on the steps, but my life is so full and so hectic I can't find the time.
• Sometimes it seems that everyone else is changing and getting some serenity, and I just feel angry and left out.
• While my recovery seems good, I'd like to enhance my spiritual growth.
