About this trip

 

The Greater Rochester Area Family of Parishes invites you to join us this February for a marriage retreat led by Fr. Grayson. You will have the unique opportunity to stay on Mackinac Island in the winter, which very few people get to experience. 


 This is a time for you to pause before going into the holiday season and take a step back from your busy life to grow with your spouse, make new friends and strengthen your marriage.


The weekend will be a mix of talks, workshops, fellowship and growth. We hope that this 

transformative weekend will help you walk into the next season of your marriage with a new sense of peace and joy.

Hello! My name is Michelle Lo Piccolo and I am the owner of The Mosaic Way Travel co. I started my travel business in 2019 and have been on a mission ever since to make a difference in the travel industry. I started my journey by getting a Bachelor's of Integrative Studies with a focus in: Marketing, Graphic Design & Entrepreneurship. My different passions led me to starting my own business, and now I offer custom coordination services for trips as small as a solo trip to large group retreats. If you dream it up, I'll coordinate!

I was fearful my scroogey heart would overtake me on a 4 hour trolley ride, but the Express Christmas Lights adventure was both Holly and Jolly for the entire duration. Michelle kept the passengers on schedule, safe, and entertained with impromptu insights, contests, and singing, all of which thoroughly exceeded expectations. Thanks for a fun event!

Thanks so much, Michelle, for a wonderful get away! It was fun to travel to Canada with friends, and I absolutely loved the theater experience! Nice time to visit and experience new things…the food and the shopping didn’t hurt either! We are looking forward to another trip with the Mosaic Way soon❣️

We enjoyed the trip very much. Everything was well planned and executed on time. Our guide (Michell) did a great job of making a long bus ride more pleasant. Thank you.

I had a way better time than I could have imagined. She was quick to tackle hiccups that arose (because when you travel, there is ALWAYS something). It was a perfect blend of relaxation, building community, and prayerful contemplation. I cannot get over how well everyone meshed and how well she picked things for our group!
