The Church after Vatican II: Discover the Buried Treasure—This retreat will review the major teachings of the Second Vatican Council found in the four constitutions issued in the 1960s: The Sacred Liturgy, Divine Revelation, The Church and The Church in the Modern World. These documents are the foundations for our life as Church. As we face current and future challenges, we need to examine and hold on to these precious jewels. (Fee $225 single, $375 double).
- June 24-26, 2008 Br. Maurus Zoeller, OSB (midweek retreat)
St. Benedict’s Way. This retreat will focus on the Rule of St. Benedict and how it can apply to living in today’s fast-paced society. Many chapters of the holy Rule can be adapted to 21st-century living, gleaning ideas from it that will greatly enhance our spiritual lives. This retreat should help us become better Christians and give us a greater appreciation for preparing for our heavenly home. (Fee $225 single, $375 double).
- June 27-29, 2008 Br. Zachary Wilberding, OSB
Forgiving and Forgiven. Jesus taught us to pray to the Father saying, “Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.” It's easy to say but often hard to do. Conflict, division, and hurt occur among families, friends, races, and nations and forgiveness is important to healing. This retreat explores forgiveness; how to do it and why it's good for us. (Fee $225 single, $375 double).
- August 19-21, 2008 Br. Thomas Gricoski, OSB (midweek retreat)
The Virtue of Humility for Today. Humility is an oft-misunderstood virtue that St. Benedict insists upon. We will examine what humility can mean today and why we have a hard time practicing this virtue. Humility does not deprive us of good things, but it opens us to receive God's gifts more fully. Ultimately, humility is about living honestly, knowing and practicing the truth about God and ourselves. The way of humility can lead to closer union with God in prayer and encourages the self-reflection necessary for a deeper life of prayer. (Fee $225 single, $375 double).
- August 22-24, 2008 Archabbot Bonaventure Knaebel, OSB
The Holy Spirit in our Lives. When Jesus returned to the Father, He promised to send us His indwelling Spirit, the greatest of all gifts. We will reflect on the gifts by which the Holy Spirit brings us fulfillment and happiness. (Fee $225 single, $375 double).

Chi-Lel QiGong for Health, Longevity, Creativity & Mental Clarity with Frank Chan
May 23 – 28
In Chinese the work “Qigong” has two characters, Qi (Chi) and Gong. “Qi” or “chi” means life energy and “Gong” means daily effort. In short, Qigong is a practice to use chi for different purposes including self-healing. Chi-Lel TM, a trademark of Luke and Frank Chan, means chi therapy. It is their version of Zhineng Qigong, a medical method developed in China by Dr. Pang Ming, who founded the worlds largest medicineless hospital. Practitioners of this method number more than ten million. Frank and his brother Luke brought this self-healing art to the West in 1995 and have taught workshops in the US, Canada and Europe.
