Welcome!
Visitation North Spirituality Center is a place of welcome for all who seek quiet space, spiritual companionship or opportunity for spiritual growth. As a ministry of the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, we are rooted in Catholic Christianity yet consider ourselves enriched by seekers of other faith traditions.
We take our inspiration from the visit between Mary and Elizabeth who spent time together sharing their joys and hopes, their confusion and their fears as they tried to be faithful to what God was asking of them. In a similar way, we accompany those women and men who endeavor to recognize God’s action here and now in their daily lives.
We do this by:
- Creating an environment for reflection and sharing - for individuals and groups
- Providing gatherings that address aspects of a reflective life:
- Studying Scripture
- Praying in a variety of ways
- Becoming everyday contemplatives
- Discovering the giants of Christian spirituality
- Knowing our faith community
- Hearing God's call to us through the cries of the human community and through the Earth itself
- Responding to requests to travel to other sites through Visitation-on-Call
Specifically, we offer:
- Spiritual direction, companionship
- Retreats in daily life
- Retreat days for groups
- Presentations on current issues
- Seasonal offerings (Advent, Lent)
- Book discussions
- Reflections on ministry
- Creative space for artists
