What Is This Retreat About?
Amid busyness, uncertainty, loss, and life transitions, God invites you to experience Divine peace. It takes time and intentional effort to recognize that invitation and respond with an open heart. Learning to listen to the still voice of God isn’t always easy—but it is possible when we slow down and develop an awareness of how God really does communicate with us, whether that is through nature, a conversation, our reactions, or a beautiful painting.
Have You Wondered…
How do I “listen” to God? (and what does that even mean?)
How can I trust that I know what God wants for me?
How can I feel more connected with God when I pray?
Each of these questions points to a longing for clarity, connection, comfort, and guidance. This retreat invites you to develop an awareness of the language of God and to try spiritual practices that can help you deepen your relationship with the Divine.
Whether you’re at a crossroads or simply yearning for more of God’s peace, the intent of this retreat is to provide a welcoming and non-judgmental environment for you to reflect. It is all with the invitation for you to experience the retreat in a way that is nurturing for you and honors where you are on your journey.

I am grateful for God's gentle "nudge" to take this retreat. It has helped me to find peace and comfort during this difficult time in our world. Each new session renewed my hope and purpose. I have also been touched by the input and comments from those I have been on this journey with. Thank you Christine for your faith, dedication and hard work to bring us these beautiful retreats. Blessings to all of you. - Joan M.
In-Person Retreats
Experiencing “Listening for the Still Voice of God” as an in-person retreat can offer the gift of time and space away from daily life, dedicated to connecting with yourself and God. In-person retreats are always offered with the invitation to experience the weekend and talk (or not talk) about God in a way that is comfortable and nurturing for you.
Where: Mercy Center Auburn, CA October 24-26, 2025
Mercy Center Burlingame, CA November 21-23, 2025 (Registration opens in November)
I am deeply grateful for all you did to create and guide us through the weekend. It was a rich and meaningful experience. I especially appreciated the way you developed a sense of community so quickly between a group of (mostly) strangers. I left Mercy Center with a new perspective on and sense of possibility for balancing my Divine rhythm as this new season unfolds. I look forward to connecting with you again.
