Individual and Group Retreats
Retreats
Prayer and reflection are resources with restorative potential. The Benedictine Pastoral Center offers individual retreats and several types of retreats for groups, both large and small. Retreats may be facilitated or private/directed. They can be set within the peace of the monastery and its picturesque grounds or at your location. They can be led by BPC staff or your own designee, or a combination of both.
Student Retreats
For student groups, the BPC offers an extensive, facilitated, day-long retreat program for confirmation classes and will work with graduating classes or other grades.

Adult Retreats
For adult groups, BPC hosts faculty retreats prior to the start of the school year, and will work with other groups upon request.
Overnight retreats are rare and are scheduled by referral only. The monastery guest house can only accommodate individuals.
