Christ Renews His Parish (CRHP, pronounced "Chirp") is a spiritual renewal weekend designed to help individuals grow in their personal relationship with Jesus Christ and with others in their faith community. It is an excellent opportunity for Catholics to renew their understanding of the basic beliefs and traditions of their faith.
Christ Renews His Parish (CRHP) is a personal and parish spiritual renewal process. As Catholics, we are called to witness to one another the amazing things God has done for us. The CRHP process allows us to do just that—take a break from our busy lives, share our faith with others, and get to know God through his works.
Since 1969, CRHP has impacted over 1,400+ parishes throughout the United States. Today, CRHP is the primary program for both personal and parish spiritual renewal in over 100+ Catholic dioceses and 40+ states across America.
Every member of the St Maria Goretti Community over 21 years old is invited and encouraged to attend a weekend.
Christ Renews His Parish is for anyone seeking spiritual renewal. You do not have to be a spiritual person at attend the retreat. In fact, many people attend because they are not as spiritual as they would like. Many attend because they feel something is missing from their lives.
CRHP is an excellant opportunity for those who attend Mass every weekend to those that have stopped attending Mass, or who lost interest in the Church, to reconnect with the Parish Family. All participants will be welcomed and received with unconditional acceptance.
