Welcome!

Welcome to Mater Dolorosa Passionist Retreat Center.

Mater Dolorosa Updated Covid Policy 2-28-23

Testing will no longer be required to attend an event at the Retreat Center.  We do ask our guests to monitor their health and to stay home if they are not feeling well.  Masks are recommended, but not required.  The staff will be happy to assist in rescheduling your retreat or event due to health reasons.

Mater Dolorosa is a Passionist Retreat Center, dedicated to preaching the Passion of Jesus Christ. We welcome all who wish to hear the message of the Passion through our traditions of preaching, hospitality, and compassion. We place our focus on the Passion of Jesus Christ and its relevance in the lives of people today. We foster and promote spiritual growth and renewal through Passionist retreat programs and by providing a peaceful environment for personal prayer and reflection.

All are welcome to this sacred space at the foothills of the San Gabriel mountains; I invite you to explore our retreat options.

God Bless,
Dr. Michael J. Cunningham O.F.S.
Retreat Center Director

What is a Passionist Retreat?

 

Then Jesus said to them: Come with me, by yourselves, to some remote place and rest a little.
