It can be helpful to have several dates in mind and/or to have some flexibility in your arrival/departure dates. Please tell us a bit about yourself and remember to specify if you would like to meet with a sister (spiritual direction) during your stay. Please wait for our reply before firming up any plans.
Retreat in Daily Life
There is also the possibility to journey through the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius in daily life (19th Annotation). Please contact us for more information.
