Experiences on Retreat

Sheila December, 2024
"I have had the joy and restoration of visiting The Osage Forest of Peace for over 15 years. As the years have passed, with the staff and board and donors prayerful attention it continues to be a place that renews me and the others who come. It is a pocket of peace indeed. Thank you all for your lived out grace, acceptance, care, prayer, mediations, and commitment to this globous interfaith retreat. It is a place that exemplifies the truth of "all shall be well." "
Elizabeth December, 2024
"I love the Osage Forest Of Peace. I had a great weekend retreat there. My cabin was comfortable and I enjoyed hiking the forest. The food was delicious and the overall atmosphere was one of peace and calm. This place is such a gem! "
Brittney December, 2024
"I am from Ohio and recently went through some life transitions. When considering where I would like to heal, I immediately decided that I would travel to the Forest. This is the place where I feel safe, where I encounter the Divine Mother, where I can rest. "
Anonymous November, 2024
"Thank you for an amazing afternoon communing both with Mother Nature and God. Peace in our hearts, peace in our homes, praying our community, peace in our country as we build peace on earth. "
Ruth November, 2024
"The peace and tranquillity of the property are evident from the moment you close your car door. The people on-site during our visit went about their activities without disrupting the ambience. There were ample places to meditate, pray, and interact with nature. Gardens and hiking trails were beautiful and inviting. I definitely plan to return."
Crystal November, 2024
"Osage Forest of Peace is a magical place, and the retreats offered here are well worth the time, effort, financial investment, and participation. In the Rites of Passage retreat (initiating into perimenopause/menopause), not a single detail was missed. This retreat was a wonderful, connected, empowering experience. Jenny was a terriferic guide; offering a wealth of wisdom, enthusiasm, modeled vulnerability, and passion. Thank you so very much for creating this space and for responding to the inner call with a willing "yes." "
Jennifer November, 2024
"Jeni was an absolutely amazing retreat leader and kind soul. She put forth a tremendous effort for a very well-thought-out retreat. Highly recommended!"
Jennifer November, 2024
"Phenomenal experience! I couldn't have asked for more! Everything was absolutely perfect! The people, the course material, Jeni, the food, the accommodationseverything was just spectacular!"
Anonymous November, 2024
"Jeni gracefully led menopause discussions and encouraged the participants' to share our experiences which led to a greater understanding of the physical and spiritual changes we are all experiencing. What a fantastic group! I appreciated Jeni's sincerity, compassion, and knowledge shared during the Menopause Retreat. She was an exceedingly gracious, creative and caring host. 5 out of 5 stars!"
Anonymous November, 2024
"I learned more about menopause this weekend than I ever had; I appreciated the honest conversations with a fantastic group of understanding women going through the same physical changes."
Anonymous November, 2024
"Such a healing, positive place. I've re-discovered this hidden gem this past year. The main chapel is overlooks the forest. It's so beautiful. You can go just about any time for some peace and quiet. "
Genie November, 2024
"What a fabulous experience this morning with two dear friends with the guidance of Courtney O’Malley. She led us through several focusing exercises and offered a safe place with beautiful fall surroundings for this respite from all things electronics and city. Overcast skies and cool temperatures with not another human in sight. Osage Forest of Peace is such a treasure!!"
Amanda October, 2024
"It was an amazing experience! Definitely will be back!❤️❤️❤️"

"Easy, friendly check-in, comfortable cabin, welcoming trees, outstanding staff, great food"
Brian October, 2024
"I am very grateful for the hospitality and acceptance given to me by the staff at Osage Forest of Peace. In addition to the staff, the Forest is a special place, and I was overcome with reverence the moment I stepped foot on the property. I originally intended to do a silent retreat in solitude, but I found that the fellow retreaters and staff were so kind and accepting during our shared times at dinner and meditation that I couldn't help but get to know them. I come from a Buddhist background, and I was glad to see statues and artwork of the Buddha throughout the grounds. This community is very welcoming to other spiritual traditions than Christianity-- something difficult to find in Oklahoma. The rate for lodging was very reasonable, and the delicious meals were provided by a professional chef and offered many options for dietary preferences/needs. Lastly, I highly recommend a spiritual direction session with David. He was kind, accepting, and wise in his advice. I can't speak highly enough of this experience. I was drawn to the Forest to work through a personal challenge, and I felt supported and guided to do just that."
Robert October, 2024
"It was a blessed retreat in a very sacred sanctuary. There is a special PRESENCE in the Forest. "
Ginny October, 2024
"Everyone I came in contact with was kind and very helpful. The grounds are beautiful, natural and well kept. It's a quiet place of beauty and grace. And the food is great too!"
Christian October, 2024
"Such a lovely peaceful setting, so aptly named. I joined them for their noon. daily group meditation followed by lunch. The food was wholesome and delicious m, the people so friendly, and the meditation room and ceremony so serve. A delightful experience. "
Mitzi October, 2024
"I had a wonderful experience at my weekend stay at the Forest. When I arrived I was joyfully greeted by the host, Jody. She was sweet, welcoming, and very informative. She showed me around the main house and described some of the activities that would be available during my stay. Next she took me to my cabin and explained the optional daily schedule and other information located in a binder in the cabin. The cabin was very clean and equipped with 2 beds, fresh bedding, and an extra velour throw blanket on each bed, a dresser, books, writing desk w/lamp, towels, wash cloths, hand towels, makeup wipes, bar & hand soap, & hair dryer. It had two chairs and a side table on the porch. I enjoyed my hikes on the property. There are 3 miles of trails for hiking. There are some challenging areas. Appropriate shoes is a must for rocky areas. There were some beautiful views and some great trail highlights throughout. It was a beautiful hike. I thoroughly enjoyed the meditation sessions. They provide gently guided sessions and you are welcome to use the meditation room when not in use by a group. This room was magical. It creates a wonderful, peaceful space for meditation. David led the meditations while I was there. He opened with a few dongs on the sound bowl and introduced the Meditation with a few minutes of prayer and focus. Leading into 25 minutes of personal prayer. It was the perfect environment for relaxation and deep meditation. I snuck back in for an individual session alone and that was the epitome of all of my mediation sessions...I highly recommend!! ✌️ The labyrinth was a great way to continue my meditation in motion. I painted, wrote, and read during my stay. It was hard to leave the Forest on my last day. I'm looking forward to my next stay! A great place to focus, let go, and recenter. Ohmagoodness!!! Chef Lawrence is extremely gifted! His meals are exquisite, delicious, and an experience all on their own! I can not wait to be at his table again!"
Lindsay September, 2024
"There are home cooked made from scratch meals, three optional meditations a day, a labyrinth for walking meditations, about three miles of hiking trails, and your own private cabin with full bathroom. You can have your retreat in silence or not. You can eat meals with everyone or not. There is an expansive library with books about many different religions. There are statues and figurines of both western and eastern religious figures throughout the grounds, although no particular religion is preached. It’s very open to anyone from any faith background or those with no faith at all. The people were very welcoming and the land was very beautiful. "
Nicholas September, 2024
"I have been coming to the FOP every third Saturday of each month, for almost a year now, to join in the Day of Zen. This is my favorite getaway and I look forward to meditation and healing. The energy here is special and the people are graciously accepting. Stay and eat lunch and you will make new friends immediately. It’s only a 20 minute drive from Tulsa. If you want to promote wellness, check out the FOP. ✌🏼 "
Jennifer September, 2024
"I spent the weekend of September 20th at the Forest of Peace for some quiet time where I could recharge and restore my balance. It was my first visit, and it was exactly what I needed. On a physical level, the cabins are simple and sparse but clean and utterly sufficient for any necessity. The main house is cozy and comfortable, with more books than you can count lining the bookcases, spaces for conversation, and the coolest meditation room imaginable. Lawrence was our chef, and wow, can the man cook! Everything was delicious, far better than I had expected. On a more spiritual level, let me just say the the Forest of Peace could not be more aptly named. Peace emanates from every corner, and from the directors and helpers that populate the place. If you need silence, they will respect that. If you need conversation, there's always someone there to listen. If you need guidance, that is also available. Whether you're walking in the woods, getting to know another visitor, or tracing your way through the meditative labyrinth, you're reminded again and again that life need not be chaotic and wearying. Peace is available. You just have to know where to find it: inside. "
Mary May, 2024
"When looking for a place to rest overnight while on a long car trip, we just wanted an alternative to a hotel. Forest of Peace sounded nice, but what we discovered was way more than "nice". We were blessed with a warm reception, opportunities to meditate, simple delicious food, trails to hike, a library to relish, and an interreligious atmosphere that was a gift to us (my husband and I are both serious about our faith but our religions are different). Our only regret is that we could not stay longer. To say it exceeded our expectations is an understatement!"
Cynde March, 2024
"The variety of activities during the recent retreat were wonderful! We experienced the sacred process of collecting gifts of love offered at the Forest over the past years and honoring them together. We cooked, ate, participated in a tea ceremony and had meditations daily. All the activities were optional, but too good to miss any of them. A joyous time full of rest and community at its finest."
Tammie February, 2024
"This was my first time to participate in a Zen experience. It was very refreshing to see how being quiet and listening to my inner voice brings such peace. "
Cynthia February, 2024
"Learning about worldwide historic and cultural traditions is one of my passions. The Gaelic Traditional Festival at the Forest provided a relaxing atmosphere to learn as community, laugh as we experienced and participated in the cooking and Brigid’s cross making, and Love during the midnight lighting of the candle and meditations in the chapel, around the table at each meal and listening to the playing of the bagpipes. I hope the Forest expands offering this type of retreat. Unforgettable. "
William January, 2024
"The gathering of people to the retreat was all I expected. Good leader, great food, nice cabin, excellent hiking!"
Mieke January, 2024
"have been coming to this magical place since 1980 and it never fails to give me what I need at the time. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful community right in our backyard. Thank you to those who support the vision "
Sally January, 2024
"New Years Eve: Under the ancient trees, I parked my car and quietly entered the Main House, then checked into a simple, comfortable cabin for the night. I took part in a community Peace Prayer service in the chapel, which has been hallowed over decades by the prayers of Benedictine nuns, Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims, Fr. Bede Griffiths and many other spiritual giants of our era. This night we prayed for every country of the world by name to be at peace. After prayers we feasted together and rang in 2024, then I retired to my cabin in the woods for a good night's sleep."
John December, 2023
"The Osage Forest of Peace was a perfect spot for a week-long reboot. There was great food (mostly vegetarian!), the soothing rhythm of the daily pre-meal meditations, surrounded in beautiful woods. The Forest property offered plenty of hikes with interesting geography, animal and plant life. Close by are other hiking opportunities with the Keystone Ancient Forest and State Park. Michaela , our facilitator, cook, guide, and meditation leader, was exceptionally gifted in hospitality while staying true to the interspirituality traditions of the "Forest" founders. There was no judgment and abundant support for a variety of individuals with different needs for space, solitude, or engagement. The extensive library was fascinating. The Labyrinth helped me center my focus. The simple cabin was comfortable, clean and inviting. I would not hesitate to stay again"
