A Quiet Retreat gives you one night away from responsibilities. The room and three meals. You are welcome but not obligated to join the Sisters for morning (8a), midday (11:30a), or evening (5p) prayer. Take in the art, read, or walk the labyrinth as you choose. The time is yours.
Some guests find it helpful to meet with a spiritual director during a Quiet Retreat.
If you have any questions or special circumstances, indicate them on your reservation request, call 651.777.7251, or email the Benedictine Center and friendly staff will help you consider the possibilities.
