After the Apostles returned from the mission Jesus had given them, Jesus told them, "Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest awhile" (Mark 6:31, NRSV).

This retreat is a privileged moment for rest, prayer, quiet, and spiritual renewal. We encourage you to let the Lord hold your everyday life and work in his capable hands for a few days so you may listen deeply to the Spirit moving and be spiritually fueled to return to whatever vineyard God has entrusted to you.

Since this retreat is a time of spiritual renewal, we ask you to refrain from pitching projects or other work-related requests. Our main goal is to give all participants the space they need for prayer and reflection.
