“The greatest teacher is silence. To come out of interior silence and to practice its radiance, its love, its concern for others, its submission to God’s will, its trust in God – even in tragic situations – is the fruit of living from your inmost center, from the contemplative space within.”
~ Fr. Thomas Keating, O.C.S.O.

The silence of your retreat provides an opportunity to still the mind, body, and heart and to listen deeply. Retreatants are invited to approach the time with an open heart and a willingness to rest into what God wants to reveal in the silence. God really does speak to us in the silence. Often we’re just too busy or surrounded by too much noise to hear what God is saying. For many, the idea of observing silence can seem challenging, but we’re never alone. God is with us.
