2023 - Silent weekend retreat
Preparing for Advent

Silent 3 day weekend retreat before Advent - Face to Face

Preparing for the journey to Bethlehem in Hope, Faith and Love  (Preparing for Advent)

Have you wanted to spend time alone with God for some time?  If so perhaps this weekend is for you.

The Ignatian Spirituality Centre in Geneva, invites you to come away from your busy schedules for a  time of silence, prayer and reflection.  During this weekend you will spend time in silence, be accompanied by your personal Spiritual Accompanier/Director and be together in a prayerful presence with your fellow retreatants.

You and your Spiritual Accompanier/Director - who will support you in your prayer journey with God -will ideally meet at least once a day.  He/she will suggest prayer material that corresponds to where you are, and offer presence to the journey you are having with God. Often having someone witness, encourage and support your prayer journey can be a way to strengthen your personal relationship with God.

Facilities: While simple, all meals and amenities will be provided, so as to ensure you and God can spend the maximum time together.
