Guided Silent Retreat

Posted byancientstreams10Posted inUncategorized


“In a noise-polluted world, it is even difficult to hear ourselves think let alone try to be still and know God. Yet it seems essential for our spiritual life to seek some silence, no matter how busy we may be. Silence is not to be shunned as empty space, but to be befriended as fertile ground for intimacy with God.” Susan Muto

Treasures for the Soul: Practices that Restore

Are you longing for some quiet time for your soul? Ancient Streams is offering a guided silent retreat during Lent this year. This is a weekend to come away, slow down, and encounter God in the silence. Mary Reimer, who leads the Winnipeg Imago Dei group, will be guiding us and offering some spiritual practices in which we become available to God to shape and restore our souls.

Cost:
Due to rising prices, Seton House has found it necessary to raise their rates. In light of this we are offering a couple of rate options:

  • $340.00 for meals, retreat fee and 2 nights accommodation
  • $200.00 for meals & retreat fee (no overnight)
