Retreats at the Centre

The deep and lasting soul care that happens on retreat is a most remarkable spiritual practice. Coming away from the ordinary to open and linger with the extraordinary presence of God in prayer, nature, quiet, in solitude and with spiritual companions advances one’s spiritual growth in vibrant and satisfying ways. The connecting and developing that happens on retreat with a community is equal to five years of meeting once a week. Retreating is the place and space to bring one’s longings and desires and be met.

The Centre offers a variety of ways to ‘retreat.’ There are morning or afternoon retreats, full-day, weekend or 4–5-day retreats. Some retreats that are offered are an ‘easy beginning’ to retreating, while others are more intense with mostly silence or deep wisdom teaching. Some focus on nature, a theme, or are more generally open to contemplation and spiritual practice. They are all wonder-full ways to be filled with wonder and be surprised by the graces that come to equip and sustain our ordinary lives.
