Personal Retreat/Silent Retreat Individual

Starting August 1, 2020, San Damiano Retreat will once again offer personal retreats for individuals. A personal retreat provides an opportunity to get away from hectic daily life to seek peace and solitude for rest, renewal, prayer, and praise. During this time of Covid 19, perhaps you long for a change of scenery or a different place to work quietly.  All rooms are equipped with WiFi.

********************************

If you choose to make a Personal Silent Retreat, Sr. Celeste Crine, OFS, will be offering program and dates will be listed below:

  1. August 28-30, 2020
  2. October 9-11, 2020
  3. November 6-8, 2020
  4. December 4-6, 2020

Program will be available as options:

9:30 am – Morning Prayer Experience with a focus for the day

11:30 am – Tai chi Chih

5:30 pm – Liturgy

7:00 pm – Evening Prayer

********************************

Overnight personal retreat.  Cost is $100 per night for first and second nights. Meals are included.  Check-in and checkout times are both 1:00 PM

What do you do on a Personal Retreat?

While you are on a private retreat you can create and structure your own personal time. Read, pray, write or sleep. Choose to walk on our many trails or walk the labyrinth. Spend time in nature by sitting in the Canticle Garden.

We live in a world filled with competing demands and have little time for reflection and contemplation. It helps to step aside to rest awhile and to reflect on the deeper meaning of events in our lives.

Spiritual direction is one source you may want to take advantage of while you are here. We have a team of spiritual directors to meet with personal retreatants.  They can help you schedule your days, give you ideas for prayer, and help you deepen your experience of God. Please contact Kateri at katerik@sandamiano.org or text and call at 925-785-9850 for more information with spiritual direction.
