There appears to be a growing interest in the monastic life among people of all lifestyles – and no wonder! For centuries, the monastic life has provided monks and nuns with disciplines and practices aimed at helping them maintain balanced, healthy and centered lifestyles while they “prefer nothing to Christ.” But these practices are not only for monks! Join us as we explore practices such as silence, prayer, simplicity, solitude and celebration, and the benefits they have for all our lives. Fee $110.00 per person which includes meals and transportation (does not include meals while traveling to and from the Retreat Center). Jerusalem, Ohio sits high on top the foothills of Appalachia, near Steubenville, Ohio.
