Seasonal Quiet Days
At Rolling Ridge Study Retreat near Harpers Ferry, West Virginia
Learn from the seasons of nature...
the seasons of the church year...
the seasons of your heart.
What would happen if you made time from your normal routine and busy weekday schedule simply to be still, pray, and reflect in a beautiful natural place apart? What would it mean for your everyday life if you set aside one day each quarter for silent retreat? How might this intention deepen your relationship with God? How might it affect your relationships at home and at work and in the wider community? Come and see the difference it makes! These four quiet days during the year offer you the opportunity to rest in the wonder of Creation's varied seasons. They are a time to ponder and gain new perspective, to be nurtured by the love of God. Each day is 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and includes guided reflection around the seasonal themes and spaciousness for solitude and meditative walks, journaling and art – with the companioning presence of each other in prayer and sacred silence. Guide: Trish Stefanik, contemplative retreat leader. Cost: Suggested $25 for individual days or $90 for all four days (or what you can pay.
