Dear Immaculate Heart Retreat Center Family:
 
It is with great regret that we must temporarily close Immaculate Heart Retreat Center through Monday, April 13, 2020, in response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19). The reason is to protect you, our retreatants, our staff, and our volunteers, many of whom are considered “high risk” due to age and other issues.
 
Retreats that are specifically cancelled are the following:
 
The Holy Week Retreat for Women
The Holy Week Retreat for Men
Daily Mass
(You may check online for our Sunday Masses which will still be available at https://www.ihrc.net/sunday-masses)
 
Impacted retreatants may want to consider checking online at www.ihrc.net for other available retreats. Individuals or groups can still schedule retreat for future dates. Please call Kristen Parker at 509 448-1224 if you have questions. 
 
If you have paid a deposit for any retreats, you can receive a credit for a future retreat or a refund. Please contact us.
 
We will provide more information as available.
 
Last, we will report on the status of future retreats by April 6, 2020. Until then, please join us as we pray for those affected in our country and throughout the world.
 
God bless you and those you love.
 
Your servant in Christ,
Deacon John Ruscheinsky
Director, Immaculate Heart Retreat Center
 

St. Corona, Patron Saint against Plagues and Epidemics, pray for us.
