Aside from the content of one’s retreat, enjoying the beauty of the grounds and property is a blessing. Thank you for offering such a respite!

Radiance of God
I really enjoyed Diarmuid O’Muchu’s
presentation based on his book of the same title. Diarmud is a contemporary oriented theologian. I’ve made several retreats and have learned from each exchange. I highly recommend his retreats and books. Believe me, you won’t be disappointed.

Divine Radiance
As usual, Diarmuid O'Murchu broadened my vision of the importance of our place on this planet and the presence of the Spirit in all that is. My awareness of this is
more evident to me as I return to the routine of daily living. Of course he also talked about many topics of interest to me, including Patriarchy, Eucharist, Energy fields, God's love of us, etc. It was a most enriching experience. Thank you.

Unleashing your inner guide
This was one of the (if not THE) MOST powerful retreat/training experiences I've ever experienced. Betty creates a safe and nurturing community, right from the opening night. By limiting the number of participants, we were able to get to know one another and become friends and supportive community to one another in a way that will last a lifetime. Thank you, Genesis, for hosting this transformative program.
