2025 Women’s Cornerstone Retreat
April 4 & 5, 2025 | Carondelet Center, Latham, NY
The Cornerstone Retreat is a special opportunity for spiritual renewal and personal growth. This retreat allows women to take a break from the busyness of daily life, reflect on their faith, and grow in a welcoming and supportive community.
St. Pius X Church is excited to host its sixth Cornerstone Retreat for Women at the Carondelet Center in Latham, NY. This year's theme, "A Grace-Filled Invitation to Faith," invites all women of our parish and school community to deepen their connection with Christ and one another.
What to Expect
The retreat is a casual and welcoming experience facilitated by fellow parishioners who have previously participated in Cornerstone. Throughout the weekend, members of the retreat team will share personal stories of faith, followed by optional discussions.
There is no pressure to participate beyond your comfort level—you are welcome to share, listen, or simply take in the experience. Many women find that Cornerstone fosters lasting connections with Christ, one another, and the St. Pius X community.
