To register, you must complete this registration form and make a $75 deposit. You can make your payment online or send it in via check. The fee for the retreat is $435 each for a double/shared room and $485 for an individual room. The retreat fee includes lodging, six meals, and program. 

The fee for this retreat is based on the nature of the retreat, cost of lodging and food, and modest compensation for four leaders. We realize that the fee may be beyond the ability of some, so we are offering partial scholarships. We encourage you to request a scholarship using our online scholarship application form.

To attend you must agree to administer a COVID self-test on the morning of January 31 and email or text us with the results.
