Saint Vincent Archabbey Retreats invites you to join Father Shawn Matthew Anderson, O.S.B., pharmacist, biology faculty member and retreat director, and other health care professionals for a day of prayer, community and food. Healthcare is stressful. No one is at their best when they are sick and hurt; and caring for the sick has been even more difficult the past few years. Compassion and understanding need to be recharged. Who cares for the caregiver? We do!
We will provide breakfast/lunch, places to pray, and quiet places to reflect.
Guest medical professionals will lead discussions on challenges and stresses of your profession.

We welcome you. Please RSVP! Invite a friend. Event is free, but please RSVP so we can account for food and hospitality.
