Retreats

Retreats.

A retreat is simply an opportunity to experience the ‘stillness’ and be open to God’s voice.

The spaciousness and peace of the House; the Chapel, and the beautiful Anderson Park combine to offer people wishing to make a retreat a natural and sacred environment in which to take time out for prayer, reflection and silence.

Experienced retreat Directors are available to accompany you, and help you to listen to what God is saying to you in this time.  

Take time out – Be Still – Retreat…

Personal Quiet Day.

Balance life’s busyness with a time of rest and reflection. Take time in the quiet, natural environment of the House of Prayer and Anderson Park to be still.  Self-cater and have use of a private room. Enjoy the Chapel, library and park. 

Retreat Days for Groups.

Come away as a group or community to share friendship and silence, and to reflect and pray together or participate in formation. Use the sacred space and facilities of the House. Skilled, contemplative leadership is available.

Private Retreats.

Come into the quiet, to listen and be present to the sacred. Enjoy a few days away from your everyday to be silent, to walk, to listen to life, to the birds and the wind through the trees. Enjoy some journaling, reflection space, creation and creativity. Retreat Direction is available if requested. 

Private Directed Retreats.

Enjoy the sacred space of the House, self-cater and participate freely in the rhythm of the community prayer life. Trained and experienced retreat directors are available to guide your days, or to offer a session or two of Spiritual Direction/Companioning upon request.

Guided Retreats.

Choose a silent retreat with input intended to assist your contemplation of life inspired by scripture, creativity, stillness, wisdom of the tradition, the mystics – traditional and contemporary. Our retreat leaders are trained and experienced in their field. Join one of the advertised retreats or make request for your group or community retreat.

Everyday Life Retreats.

These retreats offer guidance for daily prayer and reflection for the length of the retreat and are supported by individual Spiritual Direction or a Faith Sharing Group facilitated by a Director. ​
