Transformations Spirituality Center

Come to a place apart -- a place in the world but, occasionally, not of it.
Transformations Spirituality Center is a peaceful place away from the harried pace of everyday life--a place where people from varied faith traditions and walks of life come to be in the solitude of a retreat or in the company of others.
 At our conference and retreat center, we offer spiritually uplifting programs, workshops and conferences; have meeting rental space for up to 200; can accommodate more than 50 overnight guests (double occupancy); and have full food service. Our retreatants can plan their own retreats, or arrange for time with one of our spiritual directors for as much or as little assistance as would make their retreat experience meaningful for them.
 Our 55-acre campus includes hiking trails that traverse field, woods, and marshland. In short, Transformations is a place where you can bring your unique and personal spiritual search and find the means for progress on your journey. We hope to see you soon.

The Franciscan Life Process Center, 230 acres of woods and farmland, offers guests opportunities to reflect on seasonal cycles. Retreatants may wish to experience a given cycle through a guided project.
Private Retreats, lasting a day or more, provide time for quiet reflection and prayer, with the option to pray with the Franciscan Sisters of the Eucharist or join the Community for Tuesday and/or Thursday evening meals.
Directed Retreats offer the additional support of meeting daily with a Franciscan Guide who assists in the process of listening to God. The primary resource for reflection and meditation is Scripture.
