My husband and I attended a Divine Mercy retreat it was a very relaxing and beautiful experience. Can't wait to go back! The Monastery is situated in a beautiful land and the Bonsai garden & gift shop were a lot of fun. Brother Mark & Father Gerard provided valuable information about God's love for all of us. I enjoyed that there was a diverse group of people (different denominations, ages & races) all welcomed and loved. It's a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with yourself, God, nature & the beauty in silence.

I spent two and a half days on a private retreat in order to re-charge myself mentally, emotionally and spiritually. The staff there are so kind and everything was perfectly organized. I went with a few books, a journal and no other agenda. But my days were filled with meditation, reflection and prayer. My advice is to go by yourself. You won't be alone.

This is a very nice setting with a great story about the evolution of the monastery. My son and I found it to relaxing and very informative visit. Two of the ~ 30 monks are extroverts and we had a good conversation with both. The ground are quite beautiful. There is a ~15 min video overview of the monasteries history that is well worth the time. The Bonsai garden and a Bonsai shop are very good and really quite unexpected an pleasure if you are into Bonsai trees.. The gift shop is very nice but very much what you would expect to find. There is a prayer service at ~5:20 every evening. If you are interested tell the Monks and they may choose to seat you closer. If not it is very hard to hear and truly experience.

It is a peaceful oasis in a busy busy world. I love quietly walking the grounds. Beautifully kept. Love the bonsai garden. Just so one will not be embarrassed, they suggest a $5 donation per adult and $2 per senior and student.
