Christ Renews His Parish (CRHP Retreats)
If you are looking for a way to renew your spiritual life, you may want to consider the CRHP Retreats that are offered each year for women and men at St. Alban Roe Parish.
First, the acronym CRHP stands for Christ Renews His Parish. It is a program started by a man named Bob Edwards from Cleveland Ohio. Bob wanted to create a weekend retreat at individual parishes with the power of the Holy Spirit to bring parishioners closer to Christ and His holy church. It was meant to be a parish event and that is why the weekend retreat is held on church grounds. Since its inception we have had 25 Ladies’ CRHP Weekends and 23 Men’s CRHP weekends at St Alban Roe. What it is not, it is not an exclusive club or a group of which you become a member and pay dues. In fact, it’s free. There is some secrecy surrounding CRHP and that is only to allow new participants to have a weekend free of goals and expectations. CRHP is not for everyone, but in my experience there are very few who do not find it most rewarding. We are all busy in our lives but sometimes it is necessary to put aside life’s daily schedule and to address our religious sense. Our very nature calls for us to transcend the self and seek God. CRHP can start this journey within our own St Alban Roe community. For those who have attended, you understand what I am saying, a new sense of God and friends for life. For others who seek greater meaning in life and the opportunity to meet like-minded men or women I ask you to consider joining us on a CRHP weekend. Over 700 satisfied fellow parishioners have and you too will find the experience most rewarding.
