Meditation Retreat in Assisi
With Brenda Brisch
September 3 - 8, 2023
This unique meditation retreat in Assisi Italy allows us to soak in it’s peace and sacred presence. Honoring all background and faiths, we offer an intimate one of a kind experience. Each retreat period is six days and five nights. Exploring the hidden treasures, gardens, and chapels of this ancient hilltop town, brings us closer to the simple peace that St. Francis and St. Clare found. We attract a contemplative community of people seeking inner peace and happiness, with no meditation experience necessary.
Each one of our teachers enriches the retreats with their lifelong dedication to spiritual practice. They share the rich inner journey of St. Francis and St. Clare along with their depth of spiritual knowledge from Eastern Philosophies.
