We provide the means and atmosphere for the individual who comes here to "Let the word of Christ, rich as it is, dwell in you." (Col. 3:16) Having experienced quiet and solitude, one goes back to the world renewed and refreshed to incarnate God's love and Word in loving response to the transforming power of the Father.
Programs are offered to enrich, renew and deepen one's interior communication with the Lord in an atmosphere of prayer, quiet and solitude. Visit the FindtheDivine northeast region calendar to review some of our retreats.

WELLNESS DAY - FOR CAREGIVERS AND HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS
PUT YOUR OWN OXYGEN MASK ON FIRST – Well Being for Body and Spirit.
In our many roles as mothers, fathers, caregivers, workers and students the majority of our time is spent caring for others and their needs. While we seemingly drink from an endless well, unintentionally and unknowingly our well being is compromised. Depleting our personal energy affects both physical & spiritual health. Prolonged stress is a contributing factor in heart disease, obesity, frequent infections and even some types of cancer. Life dissatisfaction and depression occur when we lack the interconnected-ness to others and the community support that is vital to our well being. Does this resonate with you? If so, join us on this journey to well being. In the words of the airline industry “Put your own oxygen mask on first, then offer assistance to others."
This one day retreat focuses on well being, empowering us to take control over our health. Utilizing an integrative (spiritual/ physical/ emotional) and interactive approach, participants will be given the tools to effectively manage stress and maintain peace in everyday life. Meditation, breath work, and gentle yoga are interwoven throughout the day. Lunch is provided and the day will conclude with Liturgy.
Arrival 9:30 p.m. Departure 2:30 p.m.
Presenter: Teresa Palmer, MSN. RN, APN,CYT
Cost $30
