Women's 11th Step Retreat: Spring Renewal and Grounding

Spring is a season of quiet miracles—roots deepening beneath the surface long before anything blooms. In the same way, this Step Eleven retreat focuses on the unseen work of spiritual growth through prayer and meditation. As the earth comes alive, we will practice aligning our lives with spiritual principles, cultivating conscious contact, and becoming instruments of peace, love, and understanding—not only for others, but for ourselves.

As women, we are often deeply tied to the roles we play and the ways we care for others, sometimes losing touch with our own inner truth. This retreat offers a sacred pause to come home to yourself. Together, we will create space to listen for the still, small voice within, strengthening our relationship with a Higher Power while rooting ourselves in the body and the present moment.

This retreat is for women in recovery who are seeking renewal, clarity, and a deeper sense of trust as they continue to walk their spiritual path.

Enders Island has long been steeped in the traditions and spirituality of the Twelve Step Program which had it’s beginnings in 1935 with the birth of AA. Our Recovery Retreats provide a unique opportunity for individuals to encounter and accompany one another as a recovery community seeking to live out the twelve steps, with particular emphasis on the eleventh 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.” 

The weekend begins with check in at 4:30 on Friday. There will be a Welcome Buffet starting at 5:30 PM. The retreat will conclude at approximately 11 Am on Sunday morning.
