2025-26 Guesthouse Retreats, Day Programs, and Other Offerings Now Available
The Brothers are pleased to make available our 2025-26 retreat and program schedule.
We invite you to a period of rest and restoration in a self-guided retreat of between two and five nights at our Monastery in Cambridge. In our expanded Quiet Day offerings, spend a day with us in silence and prayer.
Deepen your prayer life in a series of program retreats led by Brothers, both in Cambridge and at Emery House in West Newbury, on a variety of topics, from praying with Scripture and Creation, to seasonal retreats in Advent and Lent, to kindness and the spirituality of the 12 steps.
In a series of Saturday programs, learn to engage your faith in new ways, whether through the practice of embodied prayer, facing hard decisions in discernment, encountering Christ in Creation, or discovering the Society’s early history in Boston and Cambridge.
Finally, for those followers of Jesus seeking support and guidance in establishing a regular practice of contemplative prayer, we are happy to offer a nine-month online program.
Those who have requested to stay with us in the past will notice an update to our online form. Please review the updated information about filling out the online form on our Commonly Asked Questions page.
However you may choose to come to us, we Brothers look forward to welcoming you!
