“The Father spoke one Word, which was His Son, and this Word He speaks always in eternal silence, and in silence must it be heard by the soul.” —Saint John of the Cross
Join us for a soulfully rich experience of silent consent to the presence and activity of God in the deepest center of your being. These silent retreats will each be supported by several periods of centering prayer and welcoming prayer along with ample times for walking, reading, journaling, rest, and prayers with the monastic community of Mount St. Scholastica.
Persons with experience of centering prayer or welcoming prayer, as well as those new to these prayer methods are welcome. For newcomers, an introductory overview of either centering prayer or welcoming prayer will be offered at each of the retreats.
These retreats are being offered in partnership with Contemplative Outreach of Kansas City.
Please register by August 28. Space is limited, so register early!
After we receive your registration, you can expect to receive a confirmation email from us which will include your invoice. We never want our retreat costs to be prohibitive to anyone who wants to attend our programs and so we offer scholarships. Fill out our simple scholarship request form now!
