Regrettably, this retreat has been cancelled as an on-site, but will be offered instead via Zoom in January, which we will post for registration soon.

Julian of Norwich was an Anchorite in England beginning in 1390 CE and was the first known woman to write in English. That work, entitled Revelations of Divine Love, continues to be published, studied, and read by people today. 

We invite you to join with others in learning about Julian and her beautiful and timeless Revelations of Divine Love. We will begin the retreat on Tuesday evening by learning a bit about Julian’s life and times and through discussing some of the themes in the book.  On Wednesday we will look at specific passages and use them as a guide for individual contemplation, group sharing, and prayer. 

An evening social will be held on Tuesday, from 6-7:00 p.m. Please plan to join and meet your fellow retreatants.

After we receive your registration, you can expect to receive a confirmation email from us which will 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!
