Winter Retreat Day

Saturday 26 July 10.00am to 4.00pm

St Joseph’s Baulkham Hills, 33 Barina Downs Road, Norwest

Led by Bethany South and Jenn Pearson

Join us as we gather for our second Retreat Day of 2025. 

We invite you to join us for this day away - take time to pause, to savour, to relish, and restore your soul and spirit.

This Retreat Day offers the opportunity to reconnect with ourselves through rest and sacred reading; with others over a shared meal and through thoughtful conversation; with nature through contemplative walking and with the transcendent through prayerful silence, together and in solitude.

Bethany South and Jenn Pearson will guide the day offering considered input, gentle facilitation, and room for your own reflection. Enjoy ‘holy leisure’ as you walk the labyrinth, enjoy the gardens and share your insights with others, nourishing your body and soul.

Morning tea and lunch are provided.

St Joseph’s is a short walk from Norwest Metro station and there is plenty of onsite parking. 

Cost: $65 ($55 for Eremos members). $5 early bird discount if booking by 26 Jun 2025.

Numbers are limited, so please register soon and no later than 9 July 2025.
