are you applying for this Sabbatical Progam?
|

This
Contemplative Sabbatical includes many optional programs. If accepted,
do you plan to participate in some, most or all of the Mornings,

The
atmosphere of the Retreat Center is one of reverent silence. Many
but not all meals will be in silence with background music. How
comfortable will you be with extended silence?
