From May 7-11, SCJs from Canada and the United States gathered at the Siena Center in Racine, WI, for the second of two Dehonian Retreats. The first was in suburban Toronto in August, 2017. The retreats were initiated by the North American councils during one of their joint meetings and focus on five themes from Dehonian Spirituality: God's love, union with Christ, oblation, reparation and social spirituality. A third retreat will be held in August for those in formation.
