Come Aside and Rest Awhile
May 18, 2020
Loyola on the Potomac
Coronavirus Update
Our Mission here at Loyola on the Potomac is simple:
Inspired by The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola, Loyola on the Potomac, A Jesuit Retreat House, seeks to encourage and support an individual’s spiritual growth and promote a relationship of depth with God.
Amidst this current pandemic, we remain committed to realizing our purpose and mission. We stand firm in our commitment to pray for all who are battling the (COVID-19) Coronavirus; for all the medical professionals who are working to slow down the progress of this disease; for all front line workers; for those who are feeling lost or isolated at this time; for all our friends, retreatants and benefactors. We are partners in ministry and together we weather this storm.
In compliance with the Governor of Maryland, The Charles County Commission and the Archdiocese of Washington, Loyola on the Potomac will reopen our doors on May 29, 2020. Please be advised that at this time we respectfully ask that no one just show up or walk in to the Retreat House. Our doors will be open ONLY for those who are registered for a retreat and who have agreed to the guidelines established for entry. (These guidelines will be posted on our website later this week)
We look forward to the time where friends can once again just drop in to say a prayer or enjoy a cookie – but we are not there yet! Thank you for your patience, compliance and understanding.
Anyone who is registered for a summer Retreat, who may not be personally ready to reenter into the general population may transfer their deposit to a future retreat, transfer the payment as a donation to the retreat house, or request a full refund by contacting our Registrar at angel.restrepo@loyolaretreat.org .
We will continue to offer our daily “Lessons from Loyola”. These short reflections can be found on the homepage of our website and on our Facebook page.
We look forward to welcoming you back soon so that you can Come Aside and Rest Awhile! In the meantime, Be Safe…Be Smart…Believe!
God Bless you.
