As the Christmas season approaches, our hearts often long for something deeper than the rushed pace and full calendars—something quieter, gentler, and more aligned with the true meaning of Advent: waiting, listening, and making room for Christ.
This overnight retreat is an invitation to step away from the noise and slip into a sacred rhythm of silence, stillness, and holy rest. Together, we’ll create space for God to restore weary places, steady our spirits, and awaken a quiet expectancy within us.
What to Expect
Over these 24 hours, you’ll be guided through a peaceful blend of:
Sacred silence to settle your soul
Guided spiritual practices that open your heart to God’s presence
Unhurried space for journaling, rest, and simply being with God
There is no pressure to perform, participate, or be productive. This retreat is a “sanctuary” - a quiet place to breathe deeply, release what’s heavy, and prepare room for the One who comes to bring hope, peace, joy, and love.
Date and times: Fri., Dec. 11 (4 pm)-Sat., Dec. 12 (4 pm). Doors open at 2 pm.
