Who in these shrill days doesn’t need a little stillness? Come placidly away from the noise and haste to remember the peace in Loyola’s House silence. A Day of Quiet is yours to devote in your own slow way to reflection, discovery, calm, and beauty. After six decades of retreats, Loyola House is saturated in a healing silence that opens and soothes the heart. Outside, over 10 km of trails through 600 acres of fields, meadows, wetland, and forest equally bring inner tranquility. A Day of Quiet allows you to rest in the warm cradle of creation.

While Days of Quiet coincide with other programs at Loyola House, you will be free to share the comfortable common areas. Beverages are available throughout your time.

This retreat is part of the Season of Creation celebration at Ignatius Jesuit Centre!

The Season of Creation is an annual, global ecumenical celebration of prayer and action to protect the environment. From September 1 to October 4, Christians around the world unite to reflect on our relationship with the Creator and all creation, to renew our commitment to care for the Earth, and to take steps toward ecological justice. This year’s theme is Peace with Creation, inviting us to restore harmony with the natural world through justice, reconciliation, and active stewardship.
