MCH-Fall Retreat-with Fr. Doug Leonhardt, S.J. “Finding God in Our Later Years”

Together, we’ll examine how aging can be a sacred season of rediscovery, where God’s presence becomes clearer through memory, gratitude, and surrender. We’ll discuss the unique challenges and blessings that come with this stage of life, and how spiritual practices, community, and personal reflection can bring renewed meaning, peace, and connection with the Divine. Each day will culminate with Rosary at 3:30 PM and Mass at 4 PM.

Fr. Doug Leonhardt, S.J. grew up in Milwaukee and graduated from Marquette High in 1956. He entered the Jesuits right after high school and was ordained in 1969. He has held administrative positions at Marquette High, Marquette University, and in the Society of Jesus.  He was also Pastor of Gesu Church in Milwaukee and the Jesuit Superior of the Jesuits in Assisted Living at St. Camillus. For the past five years he has worked part-time in Adult Faith Formation at Marquette High with staff, faculty, and alumni, as well as leading retreats and being the spiritual director for priests, seminarians and laypersons.
