Priest & Seminarian Silent Retreat
Desire to renew the gift of spiritual fatherhood that the Father has blessed you with in Christ? Withdraw from the world and enter into great silence in the Carmelite tradition for twenty-four days with meditations composed by St. Elizabeth of the Trinity. The retreat includes Mass, Eucharistic Exposition, opportunties for confession, daily conferences, daily meetings with the retreat master, daily spiritual exercises, a booklet for journalling with meditations drawn from “Heaven in Faith” and "Last Retreat" in her complete works, and ample silence for prayer.

Writing Retreat
Writing is a challenge – finding time, clearing space, getting inspired … and it can also be lonely. Our Lady of Santa Clara’s Writing Retreat is the perfect solution: we provide you with dedicated time and a peaceful space to write in solitude with beautiful natural surroundings and inspiring views. During this unique retreat, however, you will also draw inspiration from above and from a faith community who share your creative dreams and daily labors.
