This hybrid retreat (
in-person and online via Zoom
) exclusively for oblates is designed to carry us deeper into our Camaldolese and Benedictine charism by examining the Three-Fold Good, the Brief Rule of St. Romuald, and the Benedictine vows interpreted for oblates. The retreat will include time for silent prayer, reflection questions with writing exercises, group discussion, meditation, shared prayer with the monks, and joint fellowship. Future retreats will include more profound readings into themes found in the Rule of St. Benedict that will help us develop into people of prayer, outreach, and love.
Come and share with other oblates your own experiences of living the oblate life while considering the wisdom from our founding documents lived out in non-monastic settings.

Lisa Benner, Oblate OSB Cam., LCSW, CSD
Lisa is an oblate of New Camaldoli Hermitage. She has spent the last 26 years working as a social worker and therapist in the field of mental health and addiction. She is a spiritual director as well.
Her spiritual journey has been incredibly influenced by the writings and teachings of Fr. Bede Griffiths, Fr. Richard Rohr, Sr. Joan Chittister, as well as Fr. Cyprian Consiglio. She is more and more interested in holistic spirituality with a deep focus on the body, mind, and spirit connection. Much like in her work in the field of mental health, the delicate balance of the holistic or integral focus has very much informed her path to the Divine.
In her free time, she enjoys traveling, listening to music, meditation, and spending time with family and friends.
