Details of this retreat

What if life’s deepest mysteries are always inviting us to be born anew?

This retreat invites participants to enter a sacred space of reflection and renewal with Fr. Diarmuid O’Murchu, international author and spiritual guide, who has graced Genesis with his wisdom since the early 1990s.

Across the weekend, we will open ourselves to two interwoven themes:

Gratitude for the Journey So Far – celebrating the grace of our shared heritage, honoring the countless companions and visionaries who have breathed life into Genesis, and acknowledging the enduring spiritual gifts handed down through decades of faithful presence.

Hope for What Is Yet to Come – engaging the challenges that many retreat centers now face, while discerning how Spirit calls us to reimagine, re-energize, and carry forward the vision entrusted to us. Together, we will reflect on how birth and rebirth are intertwined in every sacred story, and how communities of faith and contemplation can continue to be vital sources of wisdom for the future.

Both reflective and forward-looking, this retreat is an opportunity to pause, to give thanks, and to imagine—courageously and prayerfully—how new life can emerge even in uncertain times.

Embracing the Journey: A Women's Retreat on the Spiritual & Psychological Dimensions of Aging
I thoroughly enjoyed and retreat itself. The Presenter, Betty Hill Crowson, was well prepared and knowledgeable about the topic. She presented the topic clearly and provided opportunities for attendees to participate in exercises in order to experience aspects of the subject matter directly. Ms. Crowson was accessible and readily answered any questions.

Room accommodations were clean and comfortable and the food was excellent. All
was well done.

Lovely group. The facilitators were transitioning, so it was a little disorganized, but the subject matter was delivered thoughtfully and clearly.

Blessing of the animals
A beautiful ceremony and blessing for our pets on the feast of Saint Francis. Genesis Spiritual Center has a peaceful and inviting space to spend time appreciating nature and the many gifts God’s creation gives us each day. I appreciated the time and blessing given to my pet during this event.
