A Matt Talbot retreat is for people of all faiths and is an opportunity for recovering alcoholics to enhance their spirituality and sober way of life.  The people who attend these retreats are all recovering alcoholics and attend the 12-step program through AA.  It is a fellowship with a common bond in our Lord where you can share and receive help and support spiritually and to receive strength from each other and from God.

A Retreat Master, who is usually a recovering alcoholic and trained in spiritual matters, gives conferences on various topics several times during the weekend, bringing valuable insights into the spiritual element of the disease of alcoholism. The Matt Talbot retreat is private and everything is confidential. There is no affiliation between AA and Matt Talbot Retreats. However, Matt Talbot Retreats are intended to foster and enhance spiritual recovery as suggested by AA's Twelve-Step Program.

Our next Matt Talbot retreat is scheduled for October 14-16, 2022. Dave Maloney will serve as Retreat Master. Dave, has been sober since 5/15/69, and has conducted twenty-five spiritual retreats for alcoholics, with an emphasis on Steps 3, 11, and 12. He has also written a meditation book entitled Love and Service.

Pre-registration for this retreat is required. The retreat commences with check-in between 2:00 - 4:00 on Friday, October 14 and concludes at noon on Sunday, October 16. The weekend schedule includes five conferences and time for meditation/prayer. An opportunity to attend Mass on Sunday is offered; however, not obligatory. All meals are included.
