About
Our campus
A place of prayer, peace and spiritual renewal at 160 Hensons Road, Somersby — dedicated to bringing people closer to the heart of Jesus Christ.
Our Retreat Centre and Facilities
The Centre features two Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration Chapels, providing sacred spaces for prayer and adoration before the Blessed Sacrament. Our grounds also include a Prayer Hall for retreats, worship, and spiritual gatherings, alongside a dedicated Chapel where daily Holy Mass is celebrated to spiritually nourish the faithful.
A unique spiritual blessing of the Centre is the presence of two First-Class Relics of beloved Catholic saints: St Faustina Kowalska, the Apostle of Divine Mercy, and St Teresa of Calcutta (Mother Teresa). Housed on-site, these relics are available for veneration, offering the faithful a special opportunity to honour these saints, seek their intercession, and draw inspiration from their lives of mercy and selfless service.
Our beautiful outdoor devotional spaces invite pilgrims into a deeper journey of contemplation. A peaceful Grotto dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary provides a quiet setting to seek her intercession and entrust intentions to her care.
The outdoor Stations of the Cross and a designated Calvary site allow visitors to prayerfully reflect on the Passion, sacrifice, and redemptive love of Jesus Christ. Along our prayer pathways, Rosary intentions encourage the faithful to walk with the Blessed Virgin Mary, lifting their personal, familial, and global intentions through her intercession. Together, these sacred spaces create an ideal environment for personal reflection and spiritual pilgrimage.
For those attending residential retreats, we provide fully furnished cottages that offer comfortable accommodation in a tranquil setting. Additionally, our on-site kitchen and dining facilities cater to the needs of our retreatants while fostering a warm spirit of Christian fellowship, hospitality, and community.
Through these facilities, the Divine Retreat Centre aims to cultivate a welcoming atmosphere where individuals and families can step away from the distractions of everyday life, experience the Lord’s presence, and be renewed in faith, hope, and love. Our prayer is that everyone who visits the Centre encounters the merciful love of Jesus, finds peace in His Eucharistic presence, and leaves spiritually strengthened for their faith journey.
