Jesus invites us to come to Him & take a real rest. In his presence we'll learn the unforced rhythms of grace. (Matthew 11:28-30,

Thank you for registering for
Together Alone, a guided group retreat into solitude and silence. This retreat is designed to be an extended time for being with and listening to God in a space where you are welcome and can discover a community of like-minded people. During our time together we will be guided through contemplative exercises and given time alone to look inward and listen to God's Spirit. In the final movement of our retreat, we will gather over a meal for group reflection and learning.
This October 2022 retreat is centered around the theme of
{Re}membering, pausing to piece the past season of life together for the sake of healing. "For when we remember all of the benefits of the Lord—his forgiveness, healing, redeeming, crowning, satisfying, and renewing...we will be changed" (Curt Thompson,
Anatomy of the Soul)
