Opportunities for Groups
Many church and diocesan groups bring their own programs to the Benedictine Sisters Retreat Center. We can accommodate day meetings and overnight retreats for both small and large groups, whether for a few hours or a few days.
Two former college dormitories provide simple, comfortable residential accommodations for retreatants. Up to 68 individuals may be accommodated overnight in shared rooms, and up to 29 in private rooms.
Two dining rooms and two meeting rooms offer flexibility for large groups, or allow two smaller groups to meet simultaneously. A small lounge area is adjacent to one of the dining rooms. Home-cooked meals are prepared with care and served cafeteria-style.
Retreat groups are welcome to join the Sisters for the Liturgy of the Hours and Eucharist. They may also enjoy the beautiful grounds of the monastery, including the Stations of the Cross located along the wooded cemetery road, the small Lourdes grotto tucked within a stand of trees, and the sunken garden. Tours of the chapel and other public areas of the monastery can be arranged if desired.
Please call or e-mail us for more information on scheduling a group retreat or meeting at the Benedictine Sisters Retreat Center.
