This retreat day offers you personal, contemplative space, and time at the Port so that you can pause peacefully during this busy, yet blessed, season and take time to appreciate the wonder, hope, and joy that is ours because the Son of God, Emmanuel, became one with us. Reflecting on the past year can be a time to acknowledge blessings received and challenges overcome, fostering gratitude and a sense of hope for the future. Each participant has access to a private room in addition to the grounds. The day includes an opening prayer, handouts to reflect on the theme, time for individual reflection, lunch, and a closing service. Fee: $50
