A Letter from the Director
Sister Janet Doyle headshot
If the season of Lent stirs in you the desire to go deeper, to study your faith more, or to find more time for solitude and prayer, Weber's offerings may help. Consider attending our monthly Days of Mindfulness or our Holy Week Retreat led by Paula D'Arcy; or come and spend some contemplative time at INAI: A Space Apart.
 
Also, check out our upcoming summer retreats listed below.

Sincerely,
Sister Janet
