A Papal
Retreat . . .
"It
is he, Jesus Christ, the true life, who
gives hope and purpose to our earthly existence,
opens our minds and hearts to the goodness
and beauty of the world around us, to solidarity
and friendship with our fellow human beings,
to intimate communion with God Himself,
in a love that goes beyond all limits of
time and space, to eternal, unassailable
happiness."
John Paul
II, Denver, 1993

In
1993, Pope John Paul II visited Saint
Malo during his World Youth Day trip
to Denver. Photographs of his visit
appear throughout Saint Malo and his
prayer-filled walk through the Rocky
Mountains was commemorated with a
plaque on the Saint Malo grounds.
Today,
Camp Saint Malo, Catholic Retreat Conference & Spiritual
Center provides a religious and spiritual
place for all denominations. The Church
of Northern Colorado and her people
have been formed by this beautiful
land, and it is here that thousands
have deepened their faith in the mystery
of Jesus Christ. Here in the extraordinary
creation of God, they have experienced
a spiritual kinship with all creation
renewed in Christ.
