Attend with the ear of your heart. This is advice from a father who loves you; welcome it, and faithfully put it into practice.
The Rule of Saint Benedict, Prologue: 1

We are happy to make our Guest House available for individuals and groups who would like to spend some time in quiet reflection and prayer. Although we offer a few "themed" retreats throughout the year, the majority of individuals and groups come to the monastery to make a personal retreat.
Personal Retreats
The Guest House is always open to individuals and groups that are interested in making a personal retreat. These must be scheduled with the Guest Master well in advance.
If you have never made a retreat at New Melleray (or even if you have), you may find this little introduction of value.
Theme Retreats
Throughout the year, the monastery offers various retreats that focus on a particular topic or theme, or are intended for a particular group of people. The following is a list of these retreats for the coming year. Click on the title of any of the retreats to learn more about it and to find a Registration Form if you are interested in attending.
