Women's Lenten Weekend Retreat: A Pilgrimage Like No Other

For centuries people have made pilgrimages to holy places in search of the Divine.  No pilgrimage, however, is like the one we will make during this retreat.  Ours is a pilgrimage of the heart.  Using the traditional Stations of the Cross as our guide, we will journey back to 1st century Palestine to be with those who witnessed the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus.  Our experience there will undoubtedly deepen our love for the One who loves us intimately and  passionately, and give us a better understanding of the relevance of Jesus’ suffering, death, and resurrection in our lives today.

This is a silent retreat. Guests will be supported in keeping a sacred silence throughout the weekend, including at meals.
