Heart of the Gospel Retreat for Men, Saturday, November 21, Canton
- Thu, Oct 22, 2026 2:16 PM
Catholic men are invited to a free, one-day Heart of the Gospel Men's Retreat on Saturday, November 21, 2026, from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm at St John Neumann Parish, 44800 Warren Rd., Canton.
The retreat is presented by St John Neumann Parish and St John Neumann Council 16169 of the Knights of Columbus, and is sponsored by our State Chaplain, Fr. Paul Ballien, pastor of St John Neumann. It is open to all Catholic men. You do not have to be a Knight of Columbus to attend.
Heart of the Gospel is a men's retreat developed by the Knights of Columbus together with Fr. John Riccardo and ACTS XXIX: Mobilizing for Mission, and it is offered through Cor, the Knights of Columbus parish-based men's ministry. Through dynamic video talks, Fr. Riccardo walks men through the heart of the Gospel message and invites them to embrace Christ's mission more fully. Many men know the story of the Gospel. Far fewer have felt its power in their hearts. This retreat aims to change that.
The day features:
• 5 video talks with Fr. John Riccardo
• Discussion and prayer
• Holy Hour and Confession
• Continental breakfast
• Lunch
• Closing with the 4:30 pm Mass
