Trumbull Manor retreats share with other activities of Opus Dei the overall purposes of the organization as described by the founder, Saint Josemaría Escrivá:

“To foster the search for holiness and the carrying out of the apostolate by Christians who live in the world, whatever their state in life or position in society. The Work of God was born to help those Christians… to understand that their life, just as it is, can be an opportunity for meeting Christ: that it is a way of holiness and apostolate. Christ is present in any honest human activity. The life of an ordinary Christian, which to some people may seem banal and petty, can and should be a holy and sanctifying life.”

Conversations with Msgr. Josemaria Escriva, p.60

Besides scheduled retreats for various groups, Trumbull Manor’s yearly schedule includes seminars, study weekends, and other programs for either men or women.  Download a copy of our 2024 brochure.
