Starting in 2019, Our Lady of the Fields began inviting local Catholic schools, Catholic parish youth groups, and Catholic high school sports teams to our grounds and facilities to grow closer to each other and to grow closer to Our Lord.
In this time, well over 1,000 people have passed through our welcoming gates. They’ve used our church, our fields, our cabins, our dining hall, our waterfront, and our high and low ropes course. We have been blessed to share our community with theirs.
Some of the groups that have come to Our Lady of the Fields in 2019 are: Our Lady of Sorrows youth group (Farmington Hills), University of Detroit Jesuit High School Varsity Football team (Detroit), St. Patrick’s youth group (Brighton), Academy of the Sacred Heart Freshman girls (Bloomfield Hills), De LaSalle High School Freshmen boys (Warren), Everest Academy Middle School boys (Clarkston), Our Lady of Victory Confirmation Retreat (Novi), St. Rafka Teen summer camp (Livonia), Shrine Catholic High School Freshman (Royal Oak), and St. Andrew’s youth group (Saline).
And, we’re not even done for the year! Our heated cabins, snow removal equipment, indoor restroom and shower facilities and large meeting spaces mean that groups are still planning to visit OLF all winter long!
Are you associated with a group that might benefit from an OLF retreat? Give us a call at (248) 379-0943, and we can work with you to plan a memorable and powerful experience. Dates are still available for the late fall and winter of 2019, and we are already booking dates for the Spring of 2020! We invite you to join us at Our Lady of the Fields!
