Enders Island, Neighbor

The Mission of Enders Island is to proclaim in word and deed the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the light of the Catholic faith. We fulfill this mission by providing for the ministerial formation of priests, religious and laity; by offering retreats, recovery opportunities, spiritual development, and educational programs for lay men and women, religious sisters and brothers, and priests; and by providing other programs and services that answer the call for evangelization of the Church and the world. We focus on the healing, nurturing, educational, and sacramental aspects of retreats and spiritual recovery. Our work is grounded in solid Catholic teaching and the practice of our faith.

We are a recognized leader in the spiritual renewal and healing ministry of Jesus Christ through retreats, recovery, and sacred art programs. Those who may feel alienated from the Church or overwhelmed by life’s challenges and sufferings will find here a welcoming and supportive atmosphere, infused with love and founded on Christ’s healing touch and promise of hope. We envision helping those who come to us to enhance or rediscover their relationship with God and with their faith, by inviting them to open their hearts and minds to the wonder and power of God’s healing and redeeming love through the rich traditions and experiences of the Catholic community.
