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

If prayer is the central core of life, then dance becomes prayer when we are expressing our relationship to God, to others, and to the world of matter and spirit, through movement originating from our deepest selves -- this same central point of worship. The movements of dance-prayer start from our deep center, flow outward like rivulets into the stream of life, and impart life everywhere. So dance can be a part of prayer, just as stillness can be a part of music. There is one root; all the rest, movement or stillness, silence or sound, is its expression. The closer the source, the purer the song.
