Sophia Spirituality Center
Welcoming all as Christ
Grounded in the rich monastic tradition of PRAYER and HOSPITALITY, Sophia Center welcomes men and women of all faiths who are searching for God, for peace, and for meaning in their lives through offerings that foster spiritual and personal growth.
A Place of Peace & Hope
Sophia Center offers a bright and welcoming place to come for a variety of opportunities to nourish your soul. Located in Atchison, Kansas, and rooted in Benedictine spirituality, we seek to “listen with the ear of our hearts” and help others to do the same. We strive to fulfill our mission through offering a variety of retreat opportunities, through Souljourners, our formation program for spiritual directors, and also by connecting those seeking spiritual direction with a spirtual director.
What can we do for you?
Our doors are open to welcome you. Spend prayerful time in our chapels, walk the beautiful grounds, and connect with the religious sisters who are always ready to greet you with a warm smile and generous hospitality.
“I know that when I get to come together with a group from Sophia, I will be getting something wonderful for my soul.”

Spiritual Direction
We all have times when we could use a listening ear and a supportive presence. A spiritual director can be that person for you. Let us help you connect with a skilled spiritual director.
