I have had many experiences at Genesis Spiritual Center and each has been a gift. The staff and presenters are warm, welcoming, and adept at meeting participants where they are on their journey. I have always found my spirit deeply nourished through their programming. The facility is comfortable and the meals delicious and nourishing. It gives me joy to recommend Genesis highly.

Breathng New Life Into Prayer
This retreat was very inspirational. It expanded the concept of prayer and how so much of what we do as we carry on our lives is prayer. The day was very nicely divided between lecture, time for reflection, time spent outside with nature, readings and music.
I liked the presenter's use of a kaleidoscope as a metaphor for transforming the broken parts of our lives. The handouts (not too many) were all so relevant and interesting. The passing on healing ritual at the end was such a tangible way to express the action.
The presenter paced things very well, was very engaged with the group and a good listener.
The Genesis site is also so peaceful and welcoming.

Breathe life into prayer
Excellent program. Really helped me to expand my ideas about prayer and recognize that there is no judgment about how to pray. Facilitator, Joanne, was excellent, in presenting knowledge and at the right pace and creating a spiritual space for us to spend the day.

Breathing Life Into Prayer.
This one day presentation was ,in a word, excellent! The presentation was balanced, well organized and flowed smoothly throughout the day. There was adequate time set aside for private prayer and contemplation. The presenter Joanne Bourquor was well prepared. She maintained an authentic sense of God and prayer throughout. I found the day to be insightful and spiritually enlivening.
