The retreat begins with check-in from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Friday night and ends at 4:00 pm on Sunday afternoon. You must attend the retreat in its entirety. Please do not make plans or travel arrangements for Sunday afternoon since we cannot guarantee a return time to NYC.
FIRST-TIME ATTENDEE TICKETS
We are blessed to have a high level of interest in these retreats, and we are grateful for the fruit that has been borne of this ministry. In order to share this opportunity with new retreatants, we are reserving 10 women's and 10 men's tickets for first-time attendees. You may select this ticket option if you are local to the New York City metro area and have never attended a Frassati Fellowship of NYC retreat. These tickets reserved for first-time attendees will cost the same as regular tickets.
RECORDINGS DURING THE RETREAT
We would like to encourage you to be present during the retreat and to give your undivided attention to our priests and speakers. In order to respect the privacy of our speakers, we ask that you do not record the talks unless you have explicit permission from the retreat team and speakers.
WAITLIST
If tickets are listed as sold out, please opt for a waitlist ticket, and we will contact you when spots open. We will prioritize requests from retreatants who are local to the New York City metro area. Please do not make arrangements to travel to this retreat if you are on the Waitlist or have not yet registered.
