Beauty in Silence Week

NOV 17-21, 2025

faculty: Eric Erickson

Tuition: $750, includes meals. Space is limited.

This retreat focuses on Thomas Merton’s mature writings and talks on prayer to inspire our own.

During Silent Week, the most vital questions are the ones we bring to our dialogue with Silence, with the support of our fellow retreatants. With Silence at the center, each day we will engage in five, 25-minute periods of contemplative prayer, about 90 minutes group discussion of excerpts from the texts above, free time in the afternoons with the opportunity for individual spiritual guidance, while taking most meals and our evenings in Silence.
