Why should I come on a retreat?

The word retreat means "to surrender" and "to step back from." While this may not be what first comes to mind when you think of an "active prayer life," taking the time to "retreat" from the demands and busyness of daily life is vital to the health of our souls. Scripture reminds us that God's voice is not often found in the loudest and most obvious ways, but in the still small voice and quietness within our hearts. The retreats we offer provide an atmostphere for you to set aside the cares of the world and breathe in deeply the love of God in order to nourish your soul and be better equipped to face the demands of everyday life with God. One retreat experience might be an (eternal) life-saving investment!
