Christ the King Passionist Retreat Center

Christ the King Passionist Retreat Center Christ the King Retreat Center can accommodate meeting groups from 10 to 110 with four meeting rooms available.

Each room also offers audio-visual equipment for presentations, and wireless Internet access. It is our mission to provide visitors to our retreat center with a peaceful sanctuary, a place where you can reflect and reconnect with God. This retreat center exists today because the founder of the Passionists, St. Paul of the Cross, was personally devoted to the retreat experience as a way to deepen o

ne’s relationship with Christ. He knew well the power of both solitude and shared spirituality, and made retreats available to his contemporaries. Hospitality is a hallmark of Passionist retreat centers, so please know that you are always welcome at Christ the King! We are grateful for your presence should you choose to visit, and we trust that your experience here will be a positive one. We ask that you support our ministry by letting others know of the value of a Passionist retreat.

On the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, the Passionist Family turns again toward the heart of our vocation: Christ Crucified, the supreme expression of God’s love. The Cross unites us beyond countries, cultures, languages, and ministries; religious and laity share one calling: to keep alive the memory of the Passion of Jesus. As we contemplate the Cross, we also recognize the crosses carried throughout our world and renew our commitment to stand beside those who suffer. May the Holy Cross keep us united as one family, witnesses of compassion, hope, and love, proclaiming together: May the Passion of Christ be always in our hearts!
En la Fiesta de la Exaltación de la Santa Cruz, la Familia Pasionista vuelve su mirada al corazón de nuestra vocación: Cristo Crucificado, expresión suprema del amor de Dios. La Cruz nos une más allá de países, culturas, lenguas y ministerios; religiosos, religiosas y laicos compartimos una misma llamada: mantener viva la memoria de la Pasión de Jesús. Al contemplar la Cruz, reconocemos también las cruces de nuestro mundo y renovamos nuestro compromiso de permanecer junto a quienes sufren. Que la Santa Cruz nos mantenga unidos como familia, testigos de compasión, esperanza y amor, proclamando juntos: ¡La Pasión de Cristo viva siempre en nuestros corazones!

Twenty-five years later, we remember. 🕯️

We remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, the courage and sacrifice of first responders, and the families and communities who continue to carry the grief of that day.

As Passionists, we turn our hearts toward the Cross, where Christ meets us in human suffering. May our remembrance lead us toward compassion, healing and peace, trusting that love will always have the last word.
Veinticinco años después, recordamos. 🕯️

Recordamos las vidas que se perdieron el 11 de septiembre de 2001, la valentía y el sacrificio de quienes acudieron primero a responder ante la tragedia, y a las familias y comunidades que aún llevan consigo el dolor de aquel día.

Como Pasionistas, volvemos nuestro corazón hacia la Cruz, donde Cristo sale a nuestro encuentro en medio del sufrimiento humano.

Que nuestra memoria nos conduzca hacia la compasión, la sanación y la paz, confiando en que el amor siempre tendrá la última palabra.
