Silence: We ask that retreatants keep exterior silence for their own benefit and to respect others. We also encourage retreatants to keep interior silence by disconnecting from the noise of the world and unplugging from electronic devices for the duration of the retreat. Keeping silence may sound daunting, but you will be in an interior dialogue with the Lord.

Frequently Asked Questions:
- Why is this now a one-day retreat?
Due to an unexpected mechanical issue affecting the heating in our guest rooms, we’re unable to accommodate overnight stays. - What should I bring?
Retreat materials will be provided. You may like to have your personal bible and rosary. - Do you really think I can be silent?
“Let us not be afraid to be silent outside and inside ourselves, so that we are able not only to perceive God’s voice, but also the voice of the person next to us, the voices of others." (Pope Benedict XVI, July 4, 2010.)
Silence does not equal boredom! It is one of the key elements to the success of any retreat. God speaks to us in the silence of our hearts and so it is necessary to maintain an external and internal silence. Here are some tips to help you prepare and maintain silence during your retreat: Don’t bring any mobile or electronic devices, such as smart phones, laptops, etc. If absolutely necessary to have your phone, switch it to off or set it in airplane mode. Put all “pendings” and “to do” items in God’s hands…if you take care of His things, He’ll take care of yours! - Can I bring my infant?
We love infants and small children, however they can be a distraction to you and others who are trying to focus during a silent retreat. In order to keep the spirit of silence and prayer, we cannot accomodate infants or small children on our silent retreats. Thank you for your understanding.
