12-Step Serenity Weekend 2026

Join us on February 28 and March 1, 2026 at Holy Wisdom Monastery for:

Humility : A Return to Truth, with presenter Claudia Greco (RN, MSW, Spiritual Director)

Dr. Bob's favorite quote on humilty reads: Humility is perpetual quietness of heart ... a deep sea of calmness, when all around and about is seeming trouble.(1965 Grapevine, Dr. Bob’s favorite quote on humility)

What does it mean to live from this perpetual quietness of heart when the waters are troubled – within and around us? Explore with us how we can return to this truth by listening to the call of our inner landscape and by finding the waters of our aliveness. Experience the 12-steps of recovery as an invitation to exclude nothing on your journey to spiritual awakening into humility.

All admissions include lunch and dinner on February 28th (Saturday) and lunch on March 1st (Sunday). Holy Wisdom offers buffet-style meals prepared from fresh, healthy, locally grown ingredients. The view from the dining room is beautiful and serene.
