What’s all involved in the
experience of a retreat?
It’s all about You and God!
Click here for a description about different kinds of retreats.
Quiet
No phones. No TV. No email. No one will bother you
for anything! In our noisy world, it is often hard to
hear God’s voice. Some people think they can’t be quiet
for a whole weekend. But they discover that this quiet
is the best part of the retreat.
Pray with others
Morning and evening prayer with other retreatants
Eucharist celebrated with great reverence
Healing service
Time for personal prayer & reflection
Lots of time to talk to and listen to God in your own
heart. You will have your own private room.
You can visit the chapel or walk around the beautiful
forty-five acre property.
Walk the outdoor Stations of the Cross and a labyrinth.
There are many quiet rooms for reading and prayer.
Peaceful rest and relaxation
You can relax in your own private room and just sit in
your easy chair to rest or reflect. A lot of people tell us
they take several naps! Several comfortable lounges
are available where you can sit and perhaps browse
through the many books which are available in the first
floor library or in the bookstore.
Informative & inspirational talks by staff
Our preached retreats offer a theme that is carried
through the entire weekend in each talk and prayer
service. Both priests and lay people offer insights.
Professional Staff to talk privately with you
Many times during retreat people begin to think
more deeply about their life in God and what
they truly desire. Gentle listening, spiritual
direction and reconciliation are available to
everyone all weekend.

Massage is available to relax your body too
We are people of the incarnation—we believe that
the body is sacred and should be treated with
tenderness. For this reason massage is available
during retreat.
Great meals
Simple, tasty, nourishing meals prepared lovingly
and attentively by a superb kitchen staff. You won’t
have to prepare your meals, nor clean up and do
dishes afterwards! Special dietary needs are gladly
accommodated.
Renewal and refreshment for body and spirit
People come away feeling renewed and refreshed
and ready to take up the challenges of everyday
living.
COST: The staff at St. Anthony Spirituality Center wants to
make their spiritual resource available to as many
people as they can. Costs for each retreat vary but if
financial concerns are holding you back from attending
our programs, please contact our office and ask about our
limited scholarship fund.
