If I come, how much will it cost me ?
3 mai 2017
The treasure of the spiritual retreat is the encounter with Jesus: this has no price but there is a cost associated with running the household…
The Foyers de Charité are open to all those who wish to come to experience a spiritual retreat together as a family, regardless of your financial means.
We do not have a daily rate. However, during the retreat, you will be given information on the running of the household.
You will be invited to contribute to the expenses of the stay, without obligation and in conscience.
Everyone is free to pay an amount to cover the expenses, or less or more than this amount, according to your means. If you are temporarily in a difficult situation, payments may also be deferred.
The running of the foyer relies on the work of the members of the community devoted to welcoming the participants and on the free participation of the latter.
When coming to the Foyer, everyone is called to participate voluntarily in the life of the household: help with the washing-up, cleaning your room, etc.
The running costs of the household cover the accommodation, meals, maintenance, heating, lighting and activities organised.
In 2016, these running costs came to between €45 and €50 for an adult per day, about half that for one child, and between €25 and €30 for a student.
NB: The financial contribution for the stay is not recognised as gift aid for tax purposes. Hence, no tax relief may be claimed.
