Kirkridge

I didn't have expectations of my retreat at Kirkridge. Really more just a bit of nervousness and anxiety. I can readily say that any expectations I had for the retreat were blown out of the water. I am feeling as though my healing has had a kickstart. The brotherhood I experienced has never happened to me before. There was no judgment, shame or guilt in disclosing our stories.

My independent retreat in “The Folly” was one of true respite and reflection. Just me and the hawks, forest and sunset on the mountain. The staff was gracious and made sure I had everything I needed but also respected my privacy. . I learned a lot about myself, and revisited the incredible spirit of Fr. Berrigan, and founders/leaders of Kirkridge. A very special place. Thank you!

Excellent leadership. Well-paced. Community building. Beautiful setting. Gardening built into the weekend. Sessions were intimate and creative, especially appreciated the collective dream work. Another good fit for the entire program. Thanks to the Kirkridge Community.

I've been 3 times now and each time was in a new place/space. It's a rustic blast from the past vibes is filled with love, the charge of hope and action towards community. I have enjoyed every stay and appreciate the leadership team at Kirkridge. They are fantastic human beings. <3

So I showed up for a very wet Wild Church on Wed. April 3-- and it was great!

What sweet, caring people! What a nice, thoughtful, short & compelling worship service- also wet!

What a nice, simple - but yummy- covered dish supper, to boot!

And what a nice, warm and dry night's stay afterwards at an extremely affordable price!

The best simple evening I've had in a long time. I will do it again. You should, too!
