3-Day Contemplative Retreat

Centering Prayer Method (IN SILENCE)

“CONTEMPLATION is the highest expression of a person’s intellectual and spiritual life. It is that life itself, fully awake, fully active, fully aware that it is alive. It is spiritual wonder. It is spontaneous awe at the sacredness of life, of being. It is gratitude for life, for awareness and for being.”       
(Thomas Merton)

The retreat aims to nurture the soul’s thirst for deepening the contemplative journey, as a path to transformation.

This 3-day experience in silence experience: short daily input sessions to deepen the Centering Prayer method and foster growth in the contemplative path; various periods of Centering Prayer each day; opportunity for spiritual companionship and journaling; and personal time to enjoy the silence inside the monastery and in its surrounding nature.
