"The Passionists reach out to people, minister to them and share their lives wherever a person is in life. They are very much in tune with the crucified of today, the people who are hurting. They take the love of Christ to them."

Our Board of Directors

The Board of Directors for St. Paul of the Cross Retreat Center is composed of lay men and women who commit themselves to supporting the Passionist mission through the dedication of their time, talent, professional and personal skills. Drawn from retreatants and partners of the center, they serve as stewards of the gifts they themselves have received. Working together to serve the mission of St. Paul's, they respond to the call to sustain and give witness to the Passionist charism.

 

Board members express this service through various committees focused on meeting the needs of retreatants, staff, and the local Detroit community.  These committees include, but are not limited to Formation, Development, Building & Grounds, Institutional Learning, Finance, Membership, Captains and Executive leadership. Board members are nominated to serve for a specified period of time and are encouraged to invite other retreatants and colleagues to share in the mission of St. Paul's.

 

"In the spirit of St. Paul of the Cross and through the love of Christ crucified, we provide a unique, sacred place of hospitality and compassion where all are welcome to experience hope, renewal, and the loving presence of God through spiritual retreats and hosted events."

 

The Board of Directors works to insure the gifts and services offered by the Center may be experienced by all who come through our doors for many years to come.
