Rest, Refreshment, and Nourishment

Retreat Offerings

“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out…? Come to me. Get away with me and
you’ll recover your life.” – Matthew 10:28 

What does the retreat offer?

Retreats are a time for your soul to slow down, a chance to come away, and to recover your life. Your life with God and with yourself. You are invited to break away from your routine. Far away from all the distractions and responsibilities in your daily life.

Each retreat is uniquely shaped according to the participants and their needs, yet shaped around rest, refreshment, and nourishment.

There will be generous and spacious space for rest, naps, walks, reflection, refreshment, and spiritual nourishment. Mornings will be slow filled with sleep, contemplation, nature, and the Divine.

The time is filled with lots of silence, space, and conversation. Each day holds a time of inner formation and nourishment, along with daily spiritual direction.

What is your soul longing for? Time to get away? Quiet? Space? Refreshment?

Gather some friends and come nourish your soul.

Where is the retreat located?

The retreat house is located on a two-acre property on Merritt Island, Fl filled with trees, birds, and blue sky. It is between two rivers and 1 mile from the Atlantic Ocean. There are many places for personal space and reflection. The dock has a swing and benches. The front porch which looks out onto the Indian River has rocking chairs, and the expansive back porch has couches and rocking chairs looking out at the pool and Banana River.

What are the accommodations like?

The retreat is capped at 3 participants so that a sacred intimacy can be maintained as well as personalized care and spiritual nourishment for each participant. Each participant will have their own room and bathroom. There is no need to bring towels or sheets or even shampoo and conditioner.

Breakfast, lunch, and snacks will be simple but consist of abundant fruit, vegetables, and wholesome food. Each evening we will go out to eat as a group.

For participants who fly, there is no need to rent a car. I will provide all the necessary transportation to and from the Orlando airport and dinner outings. You also will have access to my car if needed.

What are possible content options?

Possible content options are ever-expanding and dependent upon the group of participants. A couple of options are:

1. Eight crucial verbs for our friendship with God. Each day will have brief talks, suggested exercises, spaces for silence, and times for reflection.

2. Three critical – and evocatively powerful – salvation stories that center around wood and blood.

3. Prayer practices and experiences.
