Come, Walk in His Footsteps.
Men of all ages, from young adults to grandfathers, face unique challenges and spiritual trials. Our men’s retreats provide an opportunity for men to come together, share their spiritual journeys and grow stronger in their relationships with God. Often, grandfathers, fathers and sons choose to experience a weekend retreat together at Malvern Retreat House.
Malvern Retreat House is a lifelong destination for men of all ages, including men that are:
- Single
- Married
- Divorced
- Fathers
- Grandfathers
- Young
But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides.
Matthew 6:33

The Men of Malvern
Many of our men’s retreats are offered specifically to the Men of Malvern, an intergenerational group of Catholic men. Founded in 1912 as the Laymen’s Retreat League of Philadelphia, they formed Malvern Retreat House and remain our foundational group—in our past, present and future. Any man is welcome to attend a men’s retreat and learn more about joining the Men of Malvern.
“I was very blessed to come with my father in the last years of his life. We even did private adoration together because of my Dad’s physical condition. It was a blessing to be there for him.”
Larry Bucci, Retreatant
A Prayer for Men & Fathers
God our Father, we give you thanks and praise for fathers young and old. We pray for our own fathers who have supported and challenged us; We remember fathers around the world whose children are lost or suffering; We pray for men who are not fathers but still mentor and guide us with fatherly love and advice. We remember fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers who are no longer with us but who live forever in our memory and nourish us with their love. Amen.
