Welcome to the Benedictine Center
Labyrinth Retreat 2025

April 12, 2025 (Saturday) 9:00am-1:00pm

Join us the day before Palm Sunday as we prepare to enter the richness of Holy Week in a unique way. Each day overflows with story after story from scripture during this holiest of weeks.

This half-day retreat will offer the time to more deeply engage in one of those stories as you embark on the path of the indoor canvas labyrinth. Plenty of quiet time for reflection and walking the labyrinth will be offered as well as the opportunity to participate in Midday Prayer with the Sisters, followed by lunch.  The day will end with a special Stations of the Cross walk on the labyrinth.  Both experienced walkers and people who have never walked a labyrinth are invited and welcome!  Limit to 10 participants.

Ongoing Spiritual Direction

It takes a bit of courage to reach out about spiritual direction because our journeys are personal and full of uncertainty. Members of the Benedictine Center’s spiritual direction team respect that just as much as we trust that the Holy Spirit is at work. Sometimes the most helpful next step is to have a personal conversation about your unique questions.

f

  • Call 651.777.7251 and speak privately about your situation.

  • Email the Benedictine Center to consider whether meeting one-on-one or in a group might be a good fit for you.

  • Request a free initial consultation, scheduled at your convenience.

 

From there the staff will prayerfully consider which person or group might be a good support to you. If you like, we’ll then have someone be in touch with you to set up a free initial consultation. That will be a time to explore your questions about and discuss expectations for the process. You might choose to continue meeting with this person, take some time to keep reflecting on the possibility, or get a recommendation about someone else who might help you deepen your relationship with God.

 

However your journey is unfolding, we wish you blessings.
