This was a fantastic experience - well worth it. Sharon and Lindsay led us through the details of whale-watching and related it beautifully to spiritual practices, such as prayer, meditation, and holy silence. The size of the boat and group were perfect for optimum whale-watching and comfortable for sharing our thoughts. I highly recommend it!

.Holy whale 🐳 watching is another parable. I appreciate not being made to feel like an old, not quite healthy person during our days and evenings together. More whales and dolphins than last year's high count! Thanks, Sharon and Lindsay, for a memorable experience. Communion on the beach near sunset is very special.

We had such a great time. When we left we went to dinner and the music was loud and it made me really appreciate the silent day. A day to listen and experience Gods voices, his words inside of the things we created. It was just such a joyful time. The hosts were so welcoming and creative in their ideas. It was a blessing to be apart of this retreat and we look forward to the next one. Thank you❤️

It was a wonderful retreat in Olmsted Falls, Ohio. Well-planned with excellent leadership. A day of spiritual grace and inspiration.
And lunch was great!

The Lenten journey was helpful and rewarding. The daily emails were a helpful reminder to find the time to be aware of Gods presence. My favorite exercises were the Lectio Divina and also loved listening to the Audio Divina while talking my daily walks in the woods.
