Seven Day Silent Directed Retreat
With Chris Beckett, SCN and Lisa Downs, M.A.
August 3 - 9, 2025
The Silent directed retreat offers a deeply personal journey, inviting individuals to reflect on how God is present and active in their lives.
Each retreat unfolds uniquely, guided by daily one-on-one meetings with a spiritual director.
The individual sessions provide an opportunity for each retreatant to explore God’s movement through prayer, life experiences, and relationships, while also discerning one’s response to deepen the call of God one discerns at this time in one’s life journey. Spiritual directors may suggest prayer practices, Scripture passages, or readings to enrich this time of reflection and discernment.
Beyond these daily meetings and an opening session, retreatants are free to embrace solitude, peace, and contemplation within the Retreat Center and the serene surroundings of Nazareth.
Daily Mass is available throughout the week.
