We're excited to be back on the road (God willing) with in-person retreats -- the first since the pandemic hit in 2019 and they declared a national emergency (we were literally an hour away from leaving for the airport and a planned event in Phoenix) when it all happened.
Hopefully -- faithfully -- we're ready to resume. Up to then, we had done about a hundred retreats in cities across the U.S. and in Canada.
This new inaugural one will be in the nation's oldest city, St. Augustine -- a real gem of a place where the Spanish explorers and missionaries set foot and also site of the first documented Catholic Mass in North America.
In fact, the site of that Mass, now a major, gorgeous shrine called Our Lady of La Leche, is just across the street -- within a minute's walk -- of the hotel (a Doubletree, at 116 San Marco Avenue, in the historic district) where the retreat will be held.
It will be all day Saturday (10 to four), with Michael Brown speaking throughout about the tremendous events and spiritual issues that have risen in those years since we were forced to bring in-person retreats to a halt.
At this very spot where America was essentially founded, Michael will discuss the future of this nation and the incredible turmoil and darkness that currently encompasses not just the U.S. but the world.
Events around us. Prophecies. Spiritual warfare. The afterlife.
Topics we long have included in these retreats, but now with greatly refreshed and new information!
As usual, the discussion of prophecy and alleged mysticism will take up a significant part of the day, as Michael focuses on topics some of which are included in his latest book, Future Events.
Russia. Ukraine. The Middle East. The coming election. The deep division in the U.S. (civil war?). The bizarre weather and other natural occurrences. The "secrets" of places such as Fatima and Medjugorje -- seen now in a new light indeed.
And warfare?
Never before has that been more intense. We'll not just discuss demonology, and new information in that regard, but do deep prayers of deliverance and protection.
The bizarre manifestations (UFOs, creature, hauntings) around us continue non-stop. We'll discuss these, and manifestations that have afflicted many, many Catholics.
No matter how dark, there is always Christ's Light -- and by the end of the retreat, everyone will feel the great lift as we discuss spirituality and also near-death experiences and what they reveal about our final destinations.
Nothing is more important than preparing for that day!
And nothing is remotely as exciting as Heaven.
Hell. Yes. It exists, as we'll discuss. And purgatory. Always much to say about that.
But Heaven breaks ALL darkness, and brings us to the greatest possible delight.
At the end of the retreat, we'll meet across the street at the shrine and pray on the grounds of the shrine, including at the tremendous, towering Cross there -- marking the spot where a Catholic priest on the first voyage there first planted a Cross, claiming the land for Jesus -- stands as the tallest one known on this continent and perhaps in the world!
Join us for what we believe and pray will be an unforgettable, joyous, uplifting, devotional, and informative day!
