‘Reflect, Refresh & Renew’
“I feel privileged to have been led on a pilgrimage from solitude to community …” .
“I thought that there was a good balance between personal space & group involvement”.
– some experiences shared by participants at Mount St. Anne’s Sabbatical Programme
This 4-week programme (taking place from the 24th March to 21st April 2019) will provide you with an opportunity to reflect on your life journey, to be refreshed and renewed by new experiences, and by the variety of perspectives presented throughout the programme. The venue (Mount St. Anne’s Retreat and Conference Centre, Killenard, Portarlington, Co. Laois) provides a welcoming and beautiful environment that helps support personal growth and spiritual renewal.
The format of the programme offers time for orientation, reflection and celebration, built around formal inputs by the Mount St. Anne’s Team and invited contributors with planned field trips to local places of significance.
The fee for the 4-week period is €3,700 (which includes all meals, tuition and field trips).
