Come Away Weekends are centered on the rhythm and space of the retreat experience itself, in the special setting of the House of Prayer. The retreat includes seasonally themed teaching and conversation on the contemplative way of life, but the heart of the experience is contemplative prayer in the oratory, along with some periods of silence, abundant personal time for rest, journaling, reading, exploring our library, and walks in the St. John’s woods.
A Come Away Weekend is both an ideal introduction to contemplative retreat as well as an opportunity for those already on the contemplative path to come alone, or with a friend, and be in quiet retreat with others gathering around the spiritual invitation.
Suggested offering: $225 (includes meals and overnight accommodations)
