27th Annual Beach Retreat (January 24-26, 2025) Come away, anchor deep! TAKE TIME TO BREATHE! To begin again, is such a hopeful idea! We will enjoy this invitation to go back to the basics of our faith, relishing our love relationship with God. We will begin with “awe – and surrendering to it.” We will be encouraged to cultivate the gift of waking up to the beauty of reality in all its glorious ordinariness. We can listen for God’s invitation to each of us personally, saying, “I am here!” All gift! Our rhythm will be one of unforced grace. We will settle into our rooms when we arrive and then gather in our ocean front meeting room for registration around 4:30 on Friday. At 5:00 we will begin with some introductions to each other and the retreat, before we go to supper at 6. After that our 4 meeting times will be the same with some quieting, settling in time, followed by some music, content and then solitude reflection time (often in your room) with a page of optional reflection questions. We will then join our listening groups to process our prayer, closing with music. We will enjoy overnight silence, each night between evening prayer and morning prayer and Saturday afternoon is free for walking on the beach, napping, reading, however God leads you. Our closing worship Sunday will be at 11, so we can be on the road by 12ish. Click here for more information. One-on-one IGNATIAN DIRECTED RETREAT (in person or on Zoom) Flexible Dates $150 for 3-day, $200 for 5-day, and $250 for 7-day We will look at our calendars and find the days that are open for a retreat. All you need is a relatively quiet space with few distractions, and a heart open to be with and listen for our holy and gracious God. A journal and a version of Scripture that you enjoy will serve you well. Our daily rhythm includes: 45 minutes with Catherine to process your prayer, an hour for solitary prayer with suggested scriptures at 3 different times, and ample free time for walking, reading, resting, singing, relaxing in God.
