Seasonal Retreats

sacred space to reconnect with god

 

Corresponding to the Church calendar, The Abbey, in partnership with the Denver Seminary Soul Care Initiative, offers Christian leaders and laity sacred space to simply be with God in the midst of the many demands of life and ministry. Each half-day retreat includes a brief time of guided group teaching, worship, and opportunities for individual spiritual direction, with the majority of the day left largely unscheduled to allow time for rest, reflection, and encountering God. 


Lent Retreats for Pastors & Faith Leaders

And may we set our distractions aside, making space to hear your voice,

and only then setting about our work,

To be the hands and feet of Christ in a worried world.

Amen.

from a litany by Fran Pratt

 

Registration is now open for our 2025 Lent retreats in Colorado Springs (Feb. 24) , Golden (Feb. 26.), Ft. Collins (Feb. 27). More info & registration forms can be found at the links below. Register now! Space is limited and our seasonal retreats consistently sell out.


Behold Space for Newness, Be Held in Rest

Every year, we offer a retreat for you as a faith leader to enter into the emerging newness that Lent leads us to. It is an opportunity to engage in rest & receptivity before you companion your congregation, staff, community, family, clients or organization through the season. If you are someone who holds prayerful, caring space for others, this is a retreat where prayerful, caring space will be held for you.

Please share this invitation with your staff, other leaders, and friends who may be longing for an experience like this! Space is limited and our seasonal retreats consistently sell out.
