Benedictine Sisters of Cullman Retreat Center
Explore the life and gifts of Hildegard of Bingen, a Benedictine visionary, artist, composer, and physician who lived in the 1100s. This retreat will include reflection on many of her visions, using her remarkable paintings and writings. We will also ponder some of her suggestions for living a deeper spiritual life, as well as enjoy music she composed for liturgical prayer.

Intensive & Post-Intensive Centering Prayer Retreat
June 20, 2023 - June 27, 2023
Benedictine Sisters Retreat Center in Cullman
Fr. Bill Fickel will be leading this eight day retreat which provides an opportunity to go deeper into the silence with up to three hours of centering prayer a day. All meals are in silence, and most days are spent in what is called "grand silence" when you are asked not to speak at all or even make eye contact.
If you are interested in the retreat, contact Katy Smith at smithdoc20@gmail.com
