During this time, we are pleased to offer traditional retreats — now with less than 50% occupancy for safe social distancing — as well as three new options to fit your needs and comfort level. Any retreat can include meeting with a spiritual director who will offer personalized suggestions for prayer.
Attend with others in the Retreat House (with private rooms and meal service) or choose the hermitage-like solitude of the Schroder House (a 1930s home for total privacy). Both options allow enjoyment of 20 acres at Ignatius House, its Chapel, the river, and 1.5 miles of trails.
If you are unable to attend but want personalized spiritual guidance, meet with a retreat director virtually wherever you are. A minimum of three daily sessions is required.
What’s most important is that this time provides the nourishing grace you seek. God indeed is with us through all things, especially as we invite God further into our journey. Call 404.255.0503 or email for assistance.
