The Shalem Institute provides in-depth support for contemplative living and leadership—a way of being in the world that is prayerfully attentive and responsive to God's presence and guidance.
For over 30 years, we have offered a wide variety of programs and resources for spiritual directors, clergy, lay leaders and individuals who want to open themselves more fully to God in their daily lives and work.
At Shalem, we honor each individual spiritual path and welcome anyone who would seek to learn from the contemplative way.

Celebrate Saint Patrick's Day with Green Work at Rolling Ridge Study Retreat
Saturday, March 17, 2012
Calling all Members, Partner Groups and Friends!
St. Patrick loved to wield a rake, saw or garden hoe and we do too! Join us on Saturday, March 17, 2012, for a joyful day of working together on the land. We plan wood cutting, gardening and trail work.
Coffee and muffins at 9:30; work begins at 10. Lunch and supper provided. After supper join us for a campfire, Irish folk tales and more, music and games.
The Retreat House is open and available for overnight stays (no charge) on both Friday and Saturday. Bring your own food for meals other than Saturday lunch and supper. Hours worked count toward membership and partner group volunteer commitments.
This event is FREE, but you must register to attend. Please register by March 9 so we know how much food to prepare. To register, email Lindsay@rollingridge.net or call 304-724-1069.
