KALAUPAPA RETREAT 2016
Hawaii is blessed to have two saints come from these very lands: Saint Damien and Saint Marianne.
In a remote and isolated area of Molokai, the small peninsula of Kalaupapa juts out of the northern part of the island. It was in this isolated area that Saint Damien and Saint Marianne cared for those who were outcast due to their affliction with Hansen's disease (also known as leprosy).
Once a place of desolation and devastation, Kalaupapa remains today as a reminder of a tragic part of Hawaii's history that turned into a message of a hope that these two saints gave to this place.
Kalaupapa is still isolated and only accessible by plane, boat, or a hike along the steep cliffs. Many have had the opportunity of visiting and touring this area, but far less have had an opportunity to stay here for more than a day.
EPIC Ministry is blessed and privileged to be hosting its 2015 retreat in this sacred place not just for a day, but for four days!
Join us for this rare opportunity to come on this unique retreat in this very special place.
