Contemplative Outreach of Phoenix offers silent intensive retreats to those who are interested in renewing and deepening their relationship with God through Centering Prayer in a community setting and wrapped in an atmosphere of profound silence.
We have had to raise retreat fees this year to accommodate Santa Rita Abbey’s cost increase for use of the retreat house facilities. We have done our best to keep these fees competitive with similar retreats around the country. Scholarship help is available.
Please note: The sisters are requiring that all visitors to the retreat facilities have had the most recent vaccination against COVID-19.
Pre-requisite: Must have attended an intensive retreat. This retreat consists of eight 30 minute Centering Prayer periods daily. There is time for individual quiet time: writing, sketching, walking, etc.
We are invited also to share in the sisters’ prayers of: Lauds, Liturgy, Vespers and Compline. This is a totally silent retreat. Soul-friending with staff can be scheduled.
Retreat fee: is $800.00
The retreats take place in Sonoita, AZ, at the Santa Rita Abbey Retreat Center,* about an hour south of Tucson. This is a natural setting on high desert terrain. There are seven private rooms; one queen room can accommodate two retreatants. Each room has its own bath. The retreat menu is vegetarian.
