Why go on a silent retreat?
Expansive Time Away
Going away on silent retreat is accepting God’s invitation to a time and place set aside for your refreshment. It is a time where we are free to put down our busy schedules and give ourselves permission to just “be” with God. It’s a time to nap, journal, pray, reflect, and, most of all, encounter the God who has loved us from before the foundation of the world.
During the retreat the following elements will be offered:
Group-Guided Spiritual Meditations. Each morning and evening, group-guided meditations are offered. You will remain in silence and listen to a Scripture text read followed by reflection questions. Art or music may be incorporated in the guided medium. These are called Lectio, Visio, or Musica Divina spiritual practices that facilitate listening to the Holy Spirit. You may want to bring a pen and your journal. These meditations are optional, but many experience the Holy Spirit powerfully through spoken word, art, or music.
Centering prayer will be offered on Saturday afternoon and is an opportunity to ground yourself with a time of silent, listening prayer in community.
Spiritual Direction is led by a trained Spiritual Director (SD). The 45-minute session is optional but is recommended for the retreat. Spiritual Direction is a place for the participant to process the movement of the Holy Spirit in their life with the SD. These directors hold a sacred space with no agenda. While it is understood that God is the true Spiritual Director, spiritual direction is a time of reflective conversation, silence, prayer, and spiritual practices to recognize and hear God’s movement, comfort, love, and call.
Time in nature. There are also nature trails to walk during the day.
