A restorative retreat for peacemakers, who in these challenging and often turbulent times, are in need of renewal. In addition to inspiring presentations, the weekend will include periods of silence, recollection/reflection, and meditative walks. Join us for this weekend sabbatical designed to restore our inner peace, help us confront difficulties with authentic spirituality and sustain us for the long haul as we continue our work for peace through justice as well as awaken us to the earth as sacrament. DaySpring, with its stunning natural beauty, is the perfect setting to experience peace, tranquility, and the sacred.
