Host a Group Retreat

We invite churches, universities, schools, nonprofits, meditation groups, and other organizations whose mission aligns with the Sisters’ charism of peace through justice to host day or overnight retreats at the Peace & Spirituality Center at St. Mary-on-the-Lake.

The Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace warmly welcome guests for a time of renewal and reflection. Overnight guests are accommodated in a peaceful and comfortable area of our campus, while day guests enjoy the serene atmosphere of the Center, nestled amid the natural beauty of our grounds.

The Center can host up to 50 guests for day retreats. For overnight retreats, however, due to our limited number of guestrooms, we welcome smaller groups of up to 10 guests to ensure a peaceful and restful experience. Overnight reservations are accepted up to six months in advance, while day retreat bookings can be made up to a year in advance.
