1 176 RETREAT CENTERS HOUSE OF PRAYER FOR PRIESTS Cardinal Manning House of Prayer for Priests Located in the Los Feliz area of Los Angeles, the Cardinal Timothy Manning House of Prayer for Priests provides a spiritual oasis for priests with accommodations surrounded by lush greenery. The Cardinal Timothy Manning House of Prayer for Priests opened in 1975 under the guidance and inspiration of Cardinal Timothy Manning and Jesuit Father John McAnulty. It was their vision that there be a special place exclusively for priests to nourish their spiritual lives and to pray for the people whom they serve. The Immaculate Heart Sisters generously loaned a portion of their property, at the site of their motherhouse, to help facilitate this dream. In 1995, Cardinal Roger Mahony expanded and rededicated the House of Prayer to serve the large number of priests using the facility. In honor of his predecessor, Cardinal Mahony officially renamed the new facility the Cardinal Timothy Manning House of Prayer for Priests. Today, the House of Prayer offers retreats (individually directed, preached and private), spiritual direction, days of recollection, daily Sacrament of Penance, as well as providing a place for priests support groups to meet. The facility consists of three primary buildings: McAnulty Hall, the original house; Bethany, which houses the guest units; and Emmaus, the main building. Father Jack Stoeger currently serves as Director, and Jesuit Father Christopher Cartwright is the Associate Director. The following Spiritual Directors serve one day a week: Father Jim Clarke, Jesuit Father Joseph Spieler, Missionary of the Holy Spirit Father Eugenio Cardenas, and Benedictine Father Joseph Brennan. For nearly 20 years the Order of St. Gregory the Great has committed the Cardinal Timothy Manning House of Prayer for Priests as its apostolate. Their gracious involvement and generosity in supporting the House of Prayer s mission of reflection, renewal and direction continues to be an integral part of our ministry.

2 It is healthy to get away from everyday life, rest and renew your faith. A retreat can provide seclusion and solitude to allow time for prayer, reflection, meditation and study. Today in the U.S. there are countless retreat centers offering a wide variety of programs all with the general purpose of the spiritual growth of the individual.

Pilgrimages in the middle ages stressed veneration of holy places and sacrifice. By the 16th century, St. Ignatius of Loyola wrote his Spiritual Exercises after spending a year in retreat, and that formula is still used extensively today. He is recognized as the patron of retreats.
