Enjoy a guided weekend of silence, spiritual renewal, rest, and listening to the voice of God. Our guest speaker and facilitator is Rev. Terry Cathcart, a seasoned pastor, spiritual director, and silent retreat leader. He has been involved in retreat ministry for over 40 years. He’ll be accompanied by worship leader Rob Engelhart, as well as a team of spiritual directors with whom participants may meet during the weekend.

This retreat offers participants an opportunity to explore and experience a variety of spiritual practices with a group of about 25 others. These practices include silence, solitude, spiritual direction, lectio divina, visio divina, singing of chants, journaling, lament, centering prayer, healing prayer, contemplative worship, holy communion, and the examen.
