Come, Holy Spirit! Straighten our crookedness. Fill our emptiness. Dull the edge of our pride. Sharpen the edge of our humility. Light the fires of our love. Quench the flames of our lust. Let us see ourselves As you see us, That we may see you As you have promised us And be healed According to your Word. |

Christ Renews His Parish (CRHP) is a process designed to bring members of a parish together in Christ. All of our commitments, including our commitment to Christ, need continued renewal if we are to be faithful. CRHP, pronounced "chirp", is an effective spiritual process, which calls together the members of the parish – priests, religious and laity – in order to experience personal conversion and Christian community in the environment of our own parish.
Who May Attend?
The retreat is open to all registered SMG parishioners who are at least 21 years old. Each retreat has a maximum of 36 participants. CRHP is for anyone who is seeking spiritual renewal, desires to build up the Body of Christ, and wants a deeper sense of purpose within our parish community. Praying for guidance is essential. If you feel called, please come! You'll be glad you did!
The retreat is offered at no cost.
