What to Expect on Retreat

Quiet.
No phones. No emails. No TV. In addition, periods of silence are set aside throughout the retreat. Some people think they won't like the quiet, but they discover that its the best part of the retreat.

Prayer with others and personal prayer.
Morning Prayer, Evening Prayer, and Holy Communion will be shared by the group. There are also acres of property for walking and meditation.

Peaceful rest and relaxation.
You can escape to your own private room, or you can use the comfortable lounges
that are available. At Monte Alverno there is a library for your use as well as a bookstore and a chapel. Evergreen Lodge is a cozy retreat house with a fireplace and is located in a serene setting on a lake. Massage is available at both locations.

Talks by the retreat team.
The talks offer help in reflecting on where God is active in your life. There is also the option of small group sharing using scripture.

Renewal and refreshment for body and spirit.
People come away feeling more grounded in their faith and ready to take up the challenges of everyday life.
