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.

PASSIONIST PILGRIMAGE & RETREAT IN ITALY 2027
A Journey Toward the Heart of Christ Crucified

Some journeys take us to new places.
A pilgrimage can take us deeper into the heart of God.

From May 1–14, 2027, we will journey through Italy in prayer, faith, community, and Passionist spirituality.
This is more than sightseeing. It is an invitation to walk, pray, listen, encounter the saints, and rediscover Christ along the way.
Our pilgrimage will culminate in a special Passionist Retreat at the Sanctuary/Monastery of St. Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows.

PASSIONIST FAMILY PRESENT AT THE DIOCESAN CONVOCATORIA — UNITED IN FAITH, HOPE & MISSION

With grateful hearts, the Passionist Family was blessed to be present and participate in the Diocese of Sacramento’s "Convocatoria al Ministerio Hispano" at the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Gathered with Bishop Jaime Soto, Timothy Matovina, Ph.D., of the University of Notre Dame, and brothers and sisters in ministry from throughout our Diocese, we reflected on "Our Lady of Guadalupe — Hope of the Americas" and her enduring call to encounter, accompaniment, evangelization, and hope. ([Diócesis de Sacramento][1])

As Passionists, we receive this experience with renewed gratitude and mission.

The Memoria Passionis calls us to remain close to the crucified of today, to listen to the voices of our communities, and to carry the compassionate love of Christ wherever hope is needed.

Our Lady of Guadalupe continues to remind us: "God draws near to His people."

Thank you to Bishop Soto, Dr. Matovina, the Diocese of Sacramento, and everyone who made this beautiful gathering of faith and formation possible.

❤️ "We return to our communities renewed, grateful, and ready to serve."

Our Lady of Guadalupe, Hope of the Americas, pray for us.
St. Paul of the Cross, pray for us.



LA FAMILIA PASIONISTA PRESENTE EN LA CONVOCATORIA DIOCESANA — UNIDOS EN LA FE, LA ESPERANZA Y LA MISIÓN

Con profunda alegría y gratitud, la "Familia Pasionista" tuvo la bendición de estar presente y participar en la "Convocatoria al Ministerio Hispano" de la Diócesis de Sacramento, celebrada en el Santuario de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe.

Junto al Obispo Jaime Soto, Timothy Matovina, Ph.D., de la Universidad de Notre Dame, y hermanos y hermanas de diferentes ministerios de nuestra Diócesis, reflexionamos en torno a "Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe — Esperanza de las Américas" y su llamado siempre actual al encuentro, acompañamiento, evangelización y esperanza. ([Diócesis de Sacramento][1])

Como Pasionistas, recibimos esta experiencia con el corazón renovado y con un compromiso aún mayor con nuestra misión.

La Memoria Passionis nos llama a permanecer cerca de los crucificados de hoy, escuchar las voces de nuestras comunidades y llevar el amor compasivo de Cristo allí donde más se necesita la esperanza.

Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe continúa recordándonos algo profundamente hermoso: "Dios se acerca a su pueblo."

Nuestro agradecimiento al Obispo Soto, al Dr. Matovina, a la Diócesis de Sacramento y a todos los que hicieron posible este hermoso encuentro de fe y formación.

❤️‍🔥 "Regresamos a nuestras comunidades renovados, agradecidos y dispuestos a servir."

Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, Esperanza de las Américas, ruega por nosotros.
San Pablo de la Cruz, ruega por nosotros.

SPIRITUAL DIRECTION - YOU DON’T HAVE TO WALK ALONE

Sometimes the spiritual journey becomes difficult to understand.
Where is God in this season of my life?
What is stirring within my heart?
How do I discern the next step?
How can I deepen my relationship with God?

Spiritual Direction is a sacred space to listen.

It is not about someone giving you all the answers. It is a prayerful relationship that helps you become more attentive to God’s presence and movement within your life.

A Spiritual Director listens with you, accompanies you, and helps you notice where God may already be speaking.
You bring your story.
Your questions.
Your prayer.
Your hopes.
Even your silence.

And together, you listen for God.
"You don’t have to walk your spiritual journey alone."
Christ the King Passionist Retreat Center



DIRECCIÓN ESPIRITUAL - NO TIENES QUE CAMINAR SOLO

Hay momentos en los que nuestro camino espiritual se vuelve difícil de comprender.
¿Dónde está Dios en esta etapa de mi vida?
¿Qué está sucediendo dentro de mi corazón?
¿Cómo puedo discernir el siguiente paso?
¿Cómo puedo profundizar mi relación con Dios?

La Dirección Espiritual es un espacio sagrado para escuchar.

No se trata de que alguien tenga todas las respuestas. Es una relación de oración y acompañamiento que nos ayuda a estar más atentos a la presencia y la acción de Dios en nuestra vida.

El Director Espiritual escucha contigo, camina a tu lado y te ayuda a reconocer dónde Dios puede estar hablando.
Traes tu historia.
Tus preguntas.
Tu oración.
Tus esperanzas.
Incluso tus silencios.
Y juntos escuchan a Dios.

No tienes que caminar tu jornada espiritual solo.
