You are welcome to bring your own food and use our kitchen as well as make arrangements to stay overnight (reservations required).

A formal retreat opportunity will follow April 2 - 3, which will include Stations of the Cross on Good Friday. More details to come.

Quote of the Day

In ancient times the symbolic meaning of names was an assumed part of their overall significance: a name was far more than simply an identifier, it was a way of truly and essentially knowing the person or thing named. Choosing a name for a child was not taken lightly, as that name would necessarily prove to be a source of strength or weakness for that individual throughout his or her life... More recently, the belief in a deep existential connection among all things allows for the possibility that our name is fundamentally correct for us.
