Retiros de Emaús

About us

The retreats are based on the biblical passage of the Disciples of Emmaus from the Gospel of Luke. They take place over 48 hours, beginning on Friday afternoon and ending on Sunday afternoon, at Casa Betània in Cornellà de Llobregat. The program is organized by Sant Oleguer parish but remains open to anyone who wishes to participate.

During the weekend, different types of activities alternate:
- Talks with testimonies that offer new perspectives on life
- Moments of prayer and reflection in intimacy with God
- Spaces for celebration and fellowship
- Time to disconnect from daily routine

The retreats are led by laypeople for laypeople. Baptized and unbaptized persons, believers and non-believers, people distanced from the Church or from other denominations, atheists and agnostics may participate. The program is experienced at all intensities of faith, without judging anyone or requiring any prior level of experience or knowledge.

There are separate retreats for women and men. The Emmaus Women's retreat has its next session scheduled for April 24, 25 and 26, 2026, with meetings every Tuesday that include mass at 8:00 PM, adoration at 8:30 PM and ending at 9:15 PM. The Emmaus Men's retreat is scheduled for the 2025-2026 academic year.

Registration is done through a registration form. To request more information about dates, schedules or additional details, you can contact the retreat coordinators Montse and other leaders directly via email or telephone.

This spiritual program has been running since 1978 in different communities. The focus is centered on personal experiences and life testimonies that seek to offer an opportunity to grow spiritually, meet other people and connect with Christian values.
