Sisters to host ‘Rest and Reflect: An Eco-Spiritual Retreat with Nature’

Plan to spend a restful weekend with the beautiful and peaceful land of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana as the Sisters of Providence host “Rest and Reflect: An Eco-Spiritual Retreat with Nature.”

The retreat is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m., on Friday, Sept. 26, and conclude at 3 p.m., on Sunday, Sept. 28.

Enjoy taking part in guided sessions in nature to connect with the Divine Life within and all around. As you observe the natural world, gain insight into your own life. Allow the trees, elements and wildlife to companion you as you spend time in gentle reflection.

The guided sessions are intended to ground and slow down participants while listening to the wisdom within. Sessions will include forest bathing, dialoguing with nature, connecting with the elements and evening circles around campfires.

Those participating will have the option to camp in tents, which will be available, as well as stay in a shared cabin or in a private room. Meals will be provided.

Lodging check in is set for Thursday, Sept. 25, after 3 p.m.

Cost for a tent camper is $300, while cost for a shared cabin (which includes a private room and shared bathroom) is $400. Cost for a room in Woodhaven (which includes a private room and bathroom) is $475. Cost for commuters is $250.

If cost is prohibitive, those interested may inquire about equity prices.
