Caleruega’s Retreat Center

04.03.2015 by Leah //

Today being Good Friday, I want to look back at our visit to Caleruega in Tagaytay last year.

Caleruega is a compound that houses the popular wedding destination, the Transfiguration Chapel, and the Caleruega Retreat Center.  Not everyone may know this but the administrators of Caleruega offer retreat packages for schools, couples and families.  Perfect for this Lenten season.

I remember having one of our school retreats at Caleruega, and the ‘side trips’ we took at the beautiful pocket gardens and nature trails inside the compound.  Their slogan “close to nature, closer to God” indeed rings true even if you spend just an hour here in this place.

Below are some of the pictures I took during our trip to Caleruega last year.

    I have been here many times pero hindi ako nagsasawa 🙂 Hopefully I will be able to experience the place again over the summer vacay.

    Once pa lang ako nakapunta pero ibang klase ang effect sakin ng Caleruega. Pati simoy ng hangin doon, kakaiba. Didn’t know they hold retreats there until now. Thanks for sharing, Leah! 🙂

    Me and my spouse joined the 3rd batch couples’ retreat and it made a difference in our relationship. Thanks to Fr Allen and the equally effective speakers who did the talks. Caleruega is a home away from home and a bridge to paradise closer to God. The serenity and the cold air makes a very inviting ambiance for spiritual healing and peace of mind. We’ll soon take our family there for a retreat again. Thanks to Fr Allen again… Thanks CALERUEGA staff.

It was so nice to finally see everyone face to face and have uninterrupted discussions that lasted past 8pm! I get to enjoy free coffee the whole day too. ☕️☕️☕️ Two things I find cute though: everyone now carries a disinfectant spray or alcohol (in every shape and brand), and wears a lanyard for their face mask 😄  #NCRFSDSummit
