Calendar
Retreat Leaders: Fr. Roger Schmit, OSB, and Abbey Guest Center staff
Advent is a time of waiting and anticipation. Set aside time, like Mary, to ponder in your own hearts the Nativity of Our Lord. In the silence, allow the real presence of Christ dwelling within you to comfort and awaken your own spirit. The Friday night conference will prepare you with ways to use the silence well. Spiritual direction will be available as well as Eucharistic Adoration.
Pricing:
$200 a person.
Retreat costs includes all the meals, a private room with its own bathroom and shower, linen and towels, retreat director fee, handouts and any private spiritual direction time. Prices are set to cover these costs. Anyone unable to pay the suggested amounts may leave whatever offering they can afford.
All retreats include prayer with monastic community and Lectio Divina.
We offer weekend Confirmation Retreats lead by our staff. To get more information on what we offer, costs and availability, email us with your request.

The Monastic Experience Retreat is for young men considering a vocation to monastic life at Conception Abbey. Come experience how our life is lived in prayer and work, meet our monks, and visit with our Vocation Director. To find out more, contact Fr. Paul at monks@conception.edu or (660) 944-2857 and visit our website at www.conceptionabbey.org.
A Christmas concert will be given by the Canto Chorale of Platte City, MO on Sunday, December 18th at 3:00 pm. It will be under an hour. A reception will follow.
After all the activities of Christmas, allow yourself a pause to spend a few days in quiet and prayer as you contemplate the coming of a New Year.
Abbey Guest Center Staff will offer reflective material on how to set spiritual commitments for the upcoming year.
Short reflective sessions will challenge and invite you to look at ways to go deeper in your journey of faith.
Prayers with the monastic community, a holy hour and the opportunity for the Sacrament of Reconciliation will all be part of this time away at Conception Abbey.
