Tobar Mhuire is a well equipped modern Retreat and Conference Centre, set in sixty acres of woodland in the heart of County Down. We hope that visitors will enjoy our facilities as well as the peace and quiet of the beautiful surroundings.
The Passionist Community in Tobar Mhuire is committed to keeping alive the authentic memory of Christ's Passion as a source of life and hope to all those struggling to find meaning in their lives. We welcome individuals and groups from Ireland and beyond who wish to take time out to reflect on their human and spiritual development.
We continue our series of conversations on life, faith and hope. On Tuesday 13th February we host Duncan Morrow from Ulster University, and on Thursday 22nd February we welcome Naomi Long MLA. Sessions begin at 7pm. All welcome. Voluntary donation but registration is required to secure a seat. See Upcoming Events below for more information.

"Rest in the heart of God, in a silence of faith and love"
St Paul of the Cross
Tobar Mhuire is committed to being a place of:
Renewal
Where the purpose of the Passion is revealed, and where people will come to understand, reflect upon, and transcend the burdens of pain which are at the heart of the human condition
Where the message of the Passion brings hope, both to a Church and society humiliated by scandals and the abuse of authority, where the rich and powerful seem to progress at the expense of those without power and influence
Hope
Learning
Where the message of the Cross responds to the disillusionment of so many congregations and clergy, and calls us to seek together a renewed meaning and understanding of ministry in the church today - a place where we prepare together for the future and not for the past.
The story of Christ Crucified proclaims a message of healing to both a broken society and a wounded and at times, wounding church
