"Laudatio" means "rejoice, rejoice, I am Glad!"

The message of Jesus was one of humility, forgiveness and  love. He taught transformation of the inner person. Jesus presents the Beatitudes in a positive sense, virtues in life which will ultimately lead to reward. All of the Beatitudes promise us salvation - not in this world, but in the next.  The retreat includes small group interaction, prayer, and the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and Mass.
