Vita Christi Retreat

We invite you to join us for a weekend retreat dedicated to the theme of: “His Mercy Endures Forever.” The retreat will be on Divine Mercy Sunday weekend. This promises to be an incredible opportunity for prayer, silence, formation, and reflection. It will be a weekend of encountering Christ and the many graces He desires to give.

Pastoral Ministry Days

Pastoral Ministry Days 2025 promises to offer a rejuvenating experience for ministers that will hopefully reach beyond simply those participating: to their families, parishes, and anyone else they serve. We hope you’ll consider joining us for this unique opportunity.

Totus Tuus Summer Camp

Totus Tuus Summer Camps offer middle school and high school youth an opportunity to enjoy the beautiful Black Hills, spend time with other Catholic youth, and build relationships with consecrated sisters, brothers, seminarians, and priests! They are overnight camps held at the Terra Sancta Retreat Center. High school students come a day early (two days early for boys' leadership) and learn more about being Catholic leaders. The time at camp includes games, times of prayer (daily Mass, opportunities for Adoration and Confession, Liturgy of the Hours…), talks, testimonies, rock climbing, swimming, kayaking, and more!

  • May 1890, Father John Cassidy become pastor of the area.  A two-story building across from the Fall River County Courthouse to serve as chapel/residence.


  • August 1898, the old school building was purchased for $531.00.  Father J. E. Cartier, pastor, divided the building into a chapel, a vestibule and small living quarters.  This church was named in honor of St. Anthony of Padua. 


"The Lord breathes the breath of life, contrition of heart, into the face of the soul when he impresses upon it his own image and likeness, which has been soiled by sin, and renews it."

- ST. ANTHONY OF PADUA
