The experience can help you slow down\, become more aware of God’s love and presence in your life\, and help deepen a loving relationship with God. There’s a special atmosphere in the house when people come together for a shared purpose\, growing closer to the Lord and to one another in silent\, prayerful communion. \n“In-session” dates allow for eight-day retreats as well as retreats of shorter duration (four-day minimum within session dates/times). Arrival time begins at 5:00 PM on the opening date of the retreat session\, dinner is at 6:00 PM and the retreat itself begins at 7:30 PM. The retreat ends at 10:00 AM on the closing date of the retreat session. Alternately\, individuals may choose “out-of-session” dates for IDRs between September and April each year. \n\n \n \n In-Session IDR 2026\n Each year\, May to August\, Manresa sets aside specific dates for Individually Directed Retreats. Experienced men and women\, Jesuits and others\, form a team of directors so that\, with this variety\, each retreatant may have a compatible person to walk with them through the Spiritual Exercises. These designated sessions allow for retreats of four to eight days (minimum of four consecutive 24-hour periods/maximum of eight consecutive 24-hour periods). Sessions fill up quickly so it is recommended to register early. \n \n \n Select one session date below:*\n \n \n IDR I (May Session) 5/11 (5:00 PM) – 5/20 (10:00 AM)\, 2026\n \n \n \n IDR II (June Session) 6/8 (5:00 PM) – 6/17 (10:00 AM)\, 2026\n \n \n \n IDR III (July Session) 7/13 (5:00 PM) – 7/22 (10:00 AM)\, 2026\n \n \n \n IDR IV (August Session) 8/5 (5:00 PM) – 8/14 (10:00 AM)\, 2026\n • An IDR at Manresa must be a minimum of four full days (96 consecutive hours).\n• The minimum does not apply to ordained/confirmed religious.\n• For an ordination or diaconate retreat\, please check with your director for specific requirements & criteria.*RequiredName*\n \n \n Mr.Mrs.Ms.Fr.Sr.Br.Dcn.\n \n Title\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n Middle\n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n \n Suffix\n \n Birthdate and/or Age*(for room assignment)Phone*Email*\n \n Address* \n \n \n \n Street Address\n \n \n Address Line 2\n \n \n City\n \n \n State / Province\n \n \n ZIP / Postal Code\n \n AfghanistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBoliviaBonaire\, Sint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCabo VerdeCambodiaCameroonCanadaCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos IslandsColombiaComorosCongoCongo\, Democratic Republic of theCook IslandsCosta RicaCroatiaCubaCuraçaoCyprusCzechiaCôte d'IvoireDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEswatiniEthiopiaFalkland IslandsFaroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaGuinea-BissauGuyanaHaitiHeard Island and McDonald IslandsHoly SeeHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIranIraqIrelandIsle of ManIsraelItalyJamaicaJapanJerseyJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKorea\, Democratic People's Republic ofKorea\, Republic ofKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People's Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacaoMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMicronesiaMoldovaMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorth MacedoniaNorthern Mariana IslandsNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestine\, State ofPanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalPuerto RicoQatarRomaniaRussian FederationRwandaRéunionSaint BarthélemySaint Helena\, Ascension and Tristan da CunhaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint MartinSaint Pierre and MiquelonSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSint MaartenSlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia and the South Sandwich IslandsSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan MayenSwedenSwitzerlandSyria Arab RepublicTaiwanTajikistanTanzania\, the United Republic ofThailandTimor-LesteTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluTürkiyeUS Minor Outlying IslandsUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited KingdomUnited StatesUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVenezuelaViet NamVirgin Islands\, BritishVirgin Islands\, U.S.Wallis and FutunaWestern SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabweÅland Islands\n Country\n \n \n Emergency Contact’s (EC) Full Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n EC’s Phone Number*EC’s Relationship to the Retreatant*Your Occupation/MinistryYour Religious AffiliationDate of Arrival*\n \n MM slash DD slash YYYY\n \n (Choose a date from those listed within your selected Session)Time of Arrival*\n \n \n Hours\n \n :\n \n \n Minutes\n \n \n \n \n AM\n PM\n \n AM/PM \n \n (If your arrival date is the first day of the session (i.e. May 13)\, your arrival time can be no earlier than 5:00 PM.)Date of Departure*\n \n MM slash DD slash YYYY\n \n (Choose a date from those listed within your selected Session)Time of Departure*\n \n \n Hours\n \n :\n \n \n Minutes\n \n \n \n \n AM\n PM\n \n AM/PM \n \n (If your departure date is the last day of the session (i.e. May 22)\, your departure time can be no later than 10:00 AM.)Preference for Director*\n \n \n Private (available for ordained/confirmed religious only)\n \n \n \n Laywoman\n \n \n \n Religious Sister\n \n \n \n Priest\n \n \n \n No preference\n (We will do our best to accommodate your preference; however\, there is no guarantee.)Accommodations\n \n First-floor room (We have an elevator for second-floor rooms.)\n \n \n Diabetic\n \n \n Vegetarian\n (Please identify any special requirements.)Food allergies and/or dietary restrictions++Our kitchen staff does its best to accommodate a large group of people.
