8 day Silent retreat
Dipping our toes in the Ignatian River.
The silent retreats at Rivendell have a minimum of structure, thus allowing folks to shape their time in silence as they are led. There is meditation/centring prayer each morning (20 minutes ) for those who wish to attend, a daily gathering at 5:00 for the participants in the retreat and up to an hour each day to meet with a spiritual director.
While on Retreat at Rivendell you will be provided with: your own room with private washroom, either with a shower or tub, all linens, and healthy yet simple meals.
After an introduction to silence on the first evening, you are invited to shape the day as you are led. Spiritual Direction is offered daily, and there is a group gathering at 5pm.
Meals are shared in silence.
These retreats are individually directed, and the themes for our daily gatherings emerge from the group.
Leadership for the silent retreats is organized by Kathi Bentall and Margaret McAvity, both spiritual directors and experienced retreat leaders.
We ask you to participate in a 3 day silent retreat before attending the 9 day.
Cost: $100/day for food and facilitation, + what you can give generously for your accommodation.
Arrival: Feb 5 after 3pm, Departure Feb 14th by 12 noon.
Retreat Cost: $900 ($100/day) for food and facilitation PLUSwhat you can give generously for your private room. (It costs us aprox. $75/night to run our facility). When you come to Rivendell for your retreat, you can pay by cheque, cash or e-transfer at booking@rivendellretreat.org.
