Come away for a "contemplative container" weekend at the House of Prayer. During the weekend, we will hold space for learning, or remembering, the rhythms of retreat.
Each day will include plenty of rest, communal contemplative prayer periods, introductory teaching on the contemplative way of life, and informal conversation and learning with other participants. Participants will also have abundant personal time for journaling, reading, and exploring our library.
This retreat includes periods of silence, including meals.
For those new to the House of Prayer or the retreat experience, the Come Away Weekend is an ideal introduction. It's also a good opportunity for those more experienced with contemplative retreats: come alone, or with a friend, to spend a summer weekend in quiet retreat with others.
Suggested offering: $125 (includes meals and overnight accommodations)
