Hermitage Retreats

Care for the Soul

How do we nurture the Spiritual in the midst of our daily routine? This retreat offers participants a quiet and reflective space away from the busy nature of daily life. A variety of input, prayer experiences, spiritual accompaniment and silence is offered during the retreat. This retreat is an ideal place to start if you have never experienced a silent retreat. The Eucharist is celebrated on the final day of this retreat.

Care for the Soul - Gift of the Mystic Within

This is a guided silent retreat with accompaniment and daily Eucharist. It would be an advantage to have previously experienced a silent retreat though this is not essential. There will be daily input and a variety of prayer experiences. The writings of some of the mystics will be explored during the retreat. Much of the final day is unstructured to allow participants the space to consider what has been offered during the retreat time.
