An Advent of Healing: Finding Hope, Peace, Love, & Joy in Recovery: Women's 11th Step
With Sr. Marie Mackey, CSJ
December 5 - 7, 2025
Join us for this Women’s 11th Step Retreat as you weave the Advent themes of Hope, Peace, Love, and Joy into your 11th Step practices throughout the year.
As you move into the stillness of winter, you will be invited into a deeper connection with your Higher Power. This retreat offers a sacred space for reflection, silence, meditation, and meaningful conversation. You will explore how the light of Advent shines through the darkness, and how you can carry that light into your life, especially through your 11th Step practice of prayer and meditation.
Enders Island has long been a sanctuary for those seeking spiritual renewal, and our Recovery Retreats honor this legacy. These retreats provide a unique opportunity to connect with others in recovery, share in mutual support, and deepen your practice of the 12 Steps. This particular retreat will focus on the 11th Step:
“We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood God, praying for the knowledge of God’s will for us and for the power to carry that out.”
