  • Simplicity; Clearing a Path to God
    So much distracts us from God! These days will provide quiet time and beautiful space for paying attention to God, and to grow in awareness of what gets in the way of recognizing God’s presence in our lives.

  • God Moving Among Us
    God is alive and well – and living among us! The newest scientific advances are changing our idea of God. The number of churchgoers is diminishing. The world is in chaos. As we live in the midst of all these issues and more, this retreat will help us to see how God is moving among us today.
