King’s House is nestled in 47 quiet, wooded acres in Belleville, Illinois, just 20 minutes from downtown St. Louis, or the Jefferson Barracks Bridge. It is sponsored by the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate, a religious congregation of priests and brothers who are dedicated to walking with people in their search for God. People of all faith traditions are welcomed with warm hospitality, and provided the opportunity for spiritual and personal growth, starting on a Friday evening with dinner, and lasting through Sunday lunch at noon.
Everyone needs a space to take their deepest questions. A retreat gives you the space and solitude to reflect on those questions. During a retreat, the team offers a quiet atmosphere, inspirational talks on a directed theme, time for solitude and prayer, and the opportunity to talk with their qualified staff, as well as an opportunity for the Sacrament of Reconciliation and celebration of Mass on Saturday and Sunday.
Since 1922, the White House Retreat has offered comfort to retreatants making a three-day silent journey with the Lord through the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola, while accepting the Lord’s invitation to “Come aside and rest a while” (Mark 6:30). On your journey, you listen to instructive, informal talks by the Jesuit retreat director and have the opportunity for private conferences, daily Mass, and the sacraments of Reconciliation and Anointing of the Sick. Your private room and tasty, family style meals, shared in silence, enhance your experience. Optional fellowship in the evening offers the opportunity to share your thoughts, renew old friendships and make new friends in faith. The White House Retreat Center is located south of St. Louis on bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River on 75 beautiful acres. http://www.whretreat.org.
