Sarah Sabbatical
A holistic approach to late life transitions.

Designed for women religious 60 years of age and older, the Sarah Sabbatical offers a time for spiritual, physical, and emotional renewal. We believe that these years in a woman's life are rich in possibilities for continued development and personal growth. It is a time for deepening the movement of interiority, for encountering new challenges, and for learning to cope with the onset of certain diminishments. Theology, spirituality, psychology, and holistic health are woven together to create a rich variety of programming. Of course, time is provided to enjoy the serenity of the surrounding rural countryside. In a spirit of freedom and loving acceptance, participants are encouraged to embrace the beauty and wisdom of their later years. Program includes a six day retreat.
