It was approved by Pope Leo XIII in 1902. \nThe primary aim of the chaplet is to seek the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit: wisdom\, understanding\, counsel\, fortitude\, knowledge\, piety\, and fear of the Lord. It is often recited when important decisions must be made or when special spiritual assistance is needed. It helps believers invite divine inspiration\, guidance in life’s trials\, and strength in weakness. \nJoin us from 9-10 am in our beautiful chapel for this special devotion. Come one\, several or all eight days to receive this wonderful blessing. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://thegoodnewscenter.org/event/chaplet-of-the-holy-spirit/2026-05-22/ CATEGORIES:Events,Relationship Programs,Spiritual Enrichment,Spiritual Programs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://thegoodnewscenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Chaplet-of-the-Holy-Spirit-Novena.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260526T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260526T153000 DTSTAMP:20260403T160658 CREATED:20241219T154044Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251212T014433Z UID:10001146-1779804000-1779809400@thegoodnewscenter.org SUMMARY:Women at the Well DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nIt wasn’t the water He came for.

This practice turns ordinary\, active time into a “rosary walk\,” allowing for meditation on the life of Christ while surrounded by nature. \nJoin us for our 21st annual Rosary Walk on Wednesday\, August 5th at 6pm here at The Good News Center’s Trail of Peace. \nWe will also pray the Rosary  in our Meditation Garden for those unable to walk the trail. Seating will be provided. \nIn case of inclement weather we will pray the Rosary in our beautiful chapel. \nWe will be offering a Greek dinner from 5-5:45 pm consisting of chicken skewers with roasted red peppers and onions\, rice\, Greek salad\, pita bread and assorted beverages. Baklava and vanilla ice cream will be offered after the Rosary. \nThe cost is $25 per person for dinner only. Reservations for dinner are accepted starting June 1st and must be paid in advance by July 29th. Register below or make reservations by calling us at 315-735-6210 Monday-Friday. \n  \n  \n  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://thegoodnewscenter.org/event/rosarywalk/ CATEGORIES:Events,Relationship Programs,Spiritual Enrichment,Spiritual Programs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://thegoodnewscenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Rosary-Walk.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260820T181500 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260820T200000 DTSTAMP:20260403T160659 CREATED:20251006T233407Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260401T135838Z UID:10000547-1787249700-1787256000@thegoodnewscenter.org SUMMARY:Theology Uncorked DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nTheology Uncorked \nTheology Uncorked is an open\, inviting gathering for the believers\, curious and skeptics alike.

Maybe just something to help things run a little more smoothly in married life—or perhaps it feels like a complete overhaul is needed and every day has become a struggle. \nThink about when your car starts making a strange noise. You take it to the mechanic\, and suddenly the sound disappears before you even get there. But marriages are different. Sometimes those little “noises” don’t go away on their own. Just like with a car\, a marriage may only need a small tune-up to get back on track—or it may need more attention. \nWhat is the answer? Retrouvaille! This weekend program offers an opportunity to rediscover why these two people fell in love in the first place. The program allows the couple to reconnect with the most important person in their life\, their spouse\, and to start fresh. \nMany people looking for marriage help are embarrassed and don’t want to seek the help they need. Retrouvaille is a confidential program where the hurting couple never has to share their “dirty laundry.”  They can still learn techniques how to communicate better from people who share their own experiences. \nOnce the couple has completed the weekend\, they are asked to continue to learn the skills necessary to solve conflict by attending additional online classes. These classes are essential to complete the Retrouvaille experience. \nThe program is conducted by volunteers who have had their own marriage challenges and have learned how to overcome them. They now want to help other couples. \nThe next Retrouvaille weekend in the Utica area will be held here at The Good News Center. Participants can register online at HelpOurMarriage.org or by calling 315-736-1869 to speak with Judy Hauck. You may also call with questions if you are uncertain if the program is right for you. \nRemember there is hope. And it is called Retrouvaille.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://thegoodnewscenter.org/event/retrouvaille-weekend-a-lifeline-for-married-couples/ CATEGORIES:Events,Relationship Programs,Spiritual Enrichment ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://thegoodnewscenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/RV-website-logo-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260909T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260909T130000 DTSTAMP:20260403T160659 CREATED:20260323T202858Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260323T202858Z UID:10001305-1788951600-1788958800@thegoodnewscenter.org SUMMARY:Good News Luncheon; "A Catholic's Journey with the Holocaust" DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]Join The Good News Center as we welcome Linna Schindler McDonald for our luncheon on Wednesday\, September 9th\, from 11 AM-1 PM. \nLinna will speak about A Catholic’s Journey with the Holocaust. Antisemitism is darkness. By discussing its origins and its application  by the Nazi’s through the Holocaust\, we begin to recognize its relevance even today. Let us stand with Helen Sperling\, a local Jewish survivor whom we lost a few years ago. She said\, “Thou shalt not be a bystander.” \nLinna is a retired Catholic school teacher. She became aware of the Holocaust at an early age\, and has studied and taught about this very important topic for over 20 years. She has spoken to young people as well as adult Jews and Christians. \nThe cost is $20 per person or $18 for 1992 Society Members. 300 Club Members are free. Reservations open June 1\, 2026.

The longing to be seen.  To be known.  To be heard without being fixed.   To be loved without performing. \nMost of us carry hidden burdens. Questions. Wounds. Hopes we barely say out loud. We scroll. We achieve. We serve. We stay busy. And still — something deeper calls. \nThe Cyrenian Way Retreat is an invitation to answer that call. \nJoin Fr. Jason Hage\, founder of the Cyrenian Apostolate and author of The Cyrenian Way: Spiritual  Poverty & The Art of Accompaniment\, September 11-13\, 2026 at The Good News Center. The retreat begins Friday at 4 pm and ends Sunday at noon. This first-of-its-kind retreat is a bold and beautiful encounter for those who want more than surface-level faith. More than inspiration. More than information. Over one transformative weekend\, you will enter into: Real silence that strengthens instead of isolates; Eucharistic prayer that anchors the soul; Dynamic teaching and formation with Fr. Hage; Honest storytelling in a community that truly listens; Practical training in the art of accompaniment; Brotherhood and sisterhood. \nYou will be invited to bring your whole story- your wounds\, your questions\, your desire for something real and discover that weakness is not a liability in the spiritual life. It is the doorway. \nThe Cyrenian Way teaches a simple but life-altering truth: when we stop guarding our image and begin offering our undivided love and attention to God and to one another\, everything shifts. Prayer becomes alive. Relationships become deeper. Your faith becomes embodied and courageous. \nSpace is limited. Full payment is required by August 31\, 2026. The retreat weekend includes: lodging-two breakfasts\, one lunch and two dinners. The cost is $349 per person or $499 per couple. To register please call The Good News Center at 315-735-6210 Monday-Friday 8:30 am-4:30 pm. \n  \n  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row] URL:https://thegoodnewscenter.org/event/cyrenian-way-retreat/ CATEGORIES:Events,Relationship Programs,Spiritual Enrichment,Spiritual Programs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://thegoodnewscenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Cyrenian-Way-Retreat.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
