Join us at Sister Eveleen Retreat House for a quiet day of reflection, prayer, silence and sharing.
Once a month, we invite you to pause and take a little time out for yourself. This is a simple retreat, a special treat for yourself, a chance to step away from the usual demands of life
and make some space for yourself and for God.
Manageable in between school runs and before life gets busy again at home, these days are also ideal if you would like to try a retreat for the first time. There will be offerings around the theme, but in the end, the day is yours. 😊
Each day offers an opportunity to ponder and perhaps cultivate a more attentive and prayerful way of being in the world.
Through the themes of Spiritual Senses (Jan), Food for Hope (March), Seeing (May), Descent (July), Humility (September), Generosity (November), and Hope (December), we will explore how ordinary experiences can become places of encounter with God. This year's Day Retreat themes and cycle are inspired by a sacramental vision of life and the Agriarian Spiritual Practices by Norman Wirzba.
The day includes:
A contemplative practice to guide your reflection and start the day
Gentle offerings to guide your reflections on the monthly theme
A rhythm of silence and shared midday prayer
Time for rest, silence, journalling, and simply being with God
Morning tea and hot drinks (BYO Lunch)
Your own room for the day
BYO lunch
Come as you are, without preparation or expectation.
Simply make this day yours.
Clear your schedule, leave your usual routines behind, and come to Sister Eveleen Retreat House.
Your host: Antje Duda - I am very much looking forward to welcoming you here at Sister Eveleen.
