Monastic & Convent Retreats for Spiritual Deliverance	BryanPM	Wednesday, December 1, 2010
Question: 12-1-10 Padre Pio Deliverance Center: Hello. From the Deliverance Team's vast experience in successful deliverance cases. Have any of you come across a person (male or female) with diabolical obsession or oppression issue who went to a monastery or convent for a time (days/weeks/month) and received deliverance that way? Question being, is that my guess was that by saturating oneself in daily Communion and Office prayers with dedicated monks or nuns may have led to such... Thank you. Respectfully, BPM
Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OMSM(r) Dear Bryan: There are many levels and intensities of demonization. The measure and difficulty of finding freedom from demonic harassments and bondages depends upon those levels and intensities. We have had people delivered upon a single phrase. People have been delivered after following our Seven Steps to Self-Deliverance. Some people are freed by merely receiving the Eucharist. We had one client freed from a couple of demons while in Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. Thus, the answer to your question, it is certainly possible to find deliverance and freedom to one degree or another by retreat at a monastery and immersing oneself in daily communion, the Divine Office, and the holy ground of the monastery. While God, in his mercy, may deliver the person completely while on retreat when the person is in such a deep devotional and holy environment, obsession and oppression are rather intense levels of demonization. At such a level it is likely that additional assistance from a Deliverance Counselor will be needed. The retreat at the monastery is certainly a good idea and may get rid of some, if not all, of the demons. But, in doing deliverance we always ask God first for healing before we do deliverance. We do not wish to presume upon God's will for our client. If God wishes to free the person immediately, or after a short time, or when the client is in adoration or on retreat, then praise God. God Bless, Bro. Ignatius Mary For information on how to receive help see our Help page. We suggest that before contacting us directly for help you try the Seven Steps to Self-Deliverance. These self-help steps will often resolve the problem. Also our Spiritual Warfare Prayer Catalog contains many prayers that may be helpful. If needed you can ask for a Personal Consultation.

Dear Bryan:

There are many levels and intensities of demonization. The measure and difficulty of finding freedom from demonic harassments and bondages depends upon those levels and intensities.

We have had people delivered upon a single phrase. People have been delivered after following our Seven Steps to Self-Deliverance. Some people are freed by merely receiving the Eucharist. We had one client freed from a couple of demons while in Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.

Thus, the answer to your question, it is certainly possible to find deliverance and freedom to one degree or another by retreat at a monastery and immersing oneself in daily communion, the Divine Office, and the holy ground of the monastery.

While God, in his mercy, may deliver the person completely while on retreat when the person is in such a deep devotional and holy environment, obsession and oppression are rather intense levels of demonization. At such a level it is likely that additional assistance from a Deliverance Counselor will be needed. The retreat at the monastery is certainly a good idea and may get rid of some, if not all, of the demons. But, in doing deliverance we always ask God first for healing before we do deliverance. We do not wish to presume upon God's will for our client. If God wishes to free the person immediately, or after a short time, or when the client is in adoration or on retreat, then praise God.
