Over the next two days, the participants engaged in a series of spiritually enriching activities including meditation, morning jobs, talks, confession, Holy Mass, and healing sessions. Each day concluded with adoration, rosary, and a good night talk, creating an atmosphere of deep contemplation and personal connection with God.<\/p>\n<p>The highlight of the retreat was the Healing Prayer Service and the Thanksgiving Holy Mass on July 13<sup>th<\/sup>, marking the culmination of the retreat.
