It will be a time of replenishment of spirit and a nourishing of both our deepest and yet highest calling. The retreat will honor and encourage wherever someone is in their faith journey. God is always with us, and may you choose to BE more than DO in this time of renewal before we step back out into the world again. Each day will include a talk by one of the retreat facilitators followed by group sharing. There will be free time in the schedule for those that may desire to attend any of the daily Benedictine prayer times with the monks, including Mass.

Facilitators include: Cynthia Stanton, Bereavement Coordinator for NVNA

This retreat is free for all caregivers.

We recognize that caregivers have little time for themselves and have a unique need for their own community, self-care, rest, and respite so they can continue to offer love and care for those in need. This retreat is a gift to you. Caregivers of loved ones of clients with cancer, dementia, terminal illness, or chronic conditions are invited to spend some intentional time being refilled and recharged by participating in a restorative and life-care, self-care retreat.
