Day of Renewal:
Nourishing Your Body, Mind and Spirit
Many of our Abbey visitors have mentioned that they would love to have a day to rest, relax and renew their weary souls. If you feel your life is out of balance and your body and soul are running on empty, a Day of Renewal may be the perfect remedy. You select the components that you believe would be most nourishing: talking with a spiritual guide, a massage, a quiet room of your own, a few laps in the Abbey swimming pool, walking on the tranquil Abbey grounds, praying with the Norbertine Community or simply sitting in the magnificent Abbey church or cloister garden with a booklet of prayers to renew your soul.
You are more than welcome to come alone or with a small group of friends. Most activities do not need to be scheduled and coordinated ahead of time. The renewal sessions that need pre-registration (and are reserved separately) are listed below with the corresponding fee. Days of renewal usually run from 9 am until 4:30 pm but again, you design the day and the length of stay. You are also invited to attend daily Eucharist at 4:30 pm and/or Evensong (Vespers) at 5:05 pm.
Day of Renewal fee: $15.00
Includes: private room, lunch, refreshments, prayer booklet, as well as all of the Abbey amenities: prayer labyrinth, swimming pool (women’s hours from 9 am-noon), sauna, tennis/basketball courts, walking paths.
The following resources are available at the Abbey, but must be scheduled individually. Please call the corresponding numbers if you wish to schedule an appointment.
Massage: $60.00
