Reserve my spot
A few days of retreat at Mont Saint-Michel
- Following the rhythm of life of the brothers and sisters of the Monastic Fraternities of Jerusalem, the brothers will welcome you from Tuesday afternoon to Friday afternoon for a time of retreat where you will share their daily life and their experience of God.
- In an atmosphere of silence, you will be able to take personal time for prayer and reflection.
- Spiritual guidance by a brother will be available.
- An oratory and private gardens, terraced and away from the flow of visitors, will be accessible to you.
- Good physical health is required (300 steps to climb several times a day to reach the abbey church).
The day is structured around:
- participation in the liturgical offices (Lauds, Mass and Vespers),
- engagement with the Holy Scriptures,
- sharing the community table,
- and part of our common life.
Practical information:
- The retreat begins Tuesday evening at 5:00 PM and ends Sunday in early afternoon (it is possible to stay until Monday, please request this when registering).
- Don't forget your Bible, if you have one, and something to write with.
- You will be accommodated in the Stella Maris lodge located in the village. It includes a common room, a small kitchen, and 5 rooms (4 double rooms and one single room). The rooms are furnished with sobriety and simplicity, in a monastic style. The bathroom and toilets are on the landing.
- Practical details will be provided upon registration.
Suggested offering:
A day is estimated at 55€ (accommodation, meals and activities). We therefore suggest a contribution of 40€ to 75€/day.
