RETREATS FOR WOMEN
"Graced Moments...honoring the Light within"
 |
Our Graced Moments weekend retreats offer a sanctuary for the contemporary woman who seeks respite from the demands of daily life.
Our retreats offer both one and two night experiences, and are held at various locations throughout the western suburbs, including the Hilton Double Tree Suites, the Marriott Renaissance, and the Oscar Swan Country Inn. All retreats begin on Friday evening with a wine and cheese reception at 7:00 pm. One night retreats conclude at 3:00 pm on Saturday, and two night retreats conclude Sunday morning at 10:00 am. All retreat experiences offer opportunities for group discussion as well as individual spiritual direction. Join us for a weekend of tranquility and serenity as we Honor the Light Within on our spiritual journey with Christ. |
