Continue your spiritual journey at a place where all are welcome

All of us need time away from our busy lives. A retreat at Holy Wisdom Monastery (whether by yourself or with a group) helps you experience renewal. You set your schedule. You determine what you are going to do. Whether you choose to walk nature trails, find a spot near the lake, sleep, browse the library or join community prayer, you open yourself to the inner journey.
