St. Monica Cornerstone Women's Retreat

The Women's Cornerstone retreat is a 26-hour retreat hosted at St. Monica by women from our community. Cornerstone is a unique opportunity to honor yourself and take a reprieve from the demands of daily life. The retreat offers time to reflect, renew and strengthen faith in a welcoming and supportive environment with other women.  

The Cornerstone sisterhood meets for fellowship the third Thursday of each month.

All Cornerstone sisters are welcome whether you participated in Women’s Cornerstone in 2010, 2026, or any of the years in-between!
