You may possess only
a small light but
uncover it.
Let it shine,
use it in order to bring
more light and under-
standing to the hearts
and minds of men and
women. Give them not
hell but hope and
courage….

John Murray 1770

Personalized individual or family retreats at Murray Grove:
an opportunity for a few restorative days of reflective silence and solitude – or simply
a place to take some time just for yourself – and an invitation to
participate with us in the enhancement and deepening of the spiritual atmosphere.


There are several ways to approach your individual retreat:

INTENSIVE RETREATS

SOLITUDE – Totally disconnect from the stress, pressures and frantic activity of contemporary "living", and focus seriously on your inner life: a chance to reacquaint yourself with yourself, to listen again for a while to your interior voice and that of the universe. To reconnect with – or to find – your center. Your time is your own.

SIMPLICITY – Pare back the complexity of life to the essentials, both materially and psychologically.

SILENCE – The entire environment will be designed to ensure minimum disruption of retreatants' concentration.

RETREATS OF REPOSE

Rest up...Write...Think...Pray...Exercise...Meditate...Do artwork or music...Read some of those books you've been meaning to get to. Make fullest use of the meeting rooms, public spaces, labyrinth and walking paths of the Murray Grove grounds and adjoining 200-acre wildlife preserve.

There is also a small library.

WORK RETREATS

Concentrate fully on whatever work is at hand for as long as you need to, with no distractions.


Assistant Director Michael Masters, with extensive experience in individual retreats, and a strong commitment to contemplative living, is ready to help.

All are welcome!
