2025 Autumn Retreat

Join Tim and Mary McCowan and team for the WellSpring Autumn Retreat at the beautiful Don Bosco Retreat Centre. This is a silent overnight retreat which includes accomodation, meals, reflections in community twice a day, and spiritual companioning once a day.

There are two options:

3 nights (from 5 pm on Friday 7- 3pm on Monday 10 March 2025)

6 nights (from 5 pm on Friday 7- 3pm on Thursday 13 March 2025) 

Mary and Tim McCowan are experienced spiritual companions and retreat leaders. Mary has a particular interest in visual art as a prayerful place. Tim is part of the Spiritual Companion Formation team at WellSpring. He enjoys walking in nature, reading and contemplative photography. Mary is available to answer any questions about the venue and content of the retreat. 

Note the venue has shared bathroom facilities and you need to bring your own linen. Linen can be provided at an extra charge of $30pp. 

If you want to financially assist someone else to attend, you can do this in the "purchase additional product" section. This is in increments of $100, so you can choose how much to support someone else. 

Refund policy

Our refund policy for the retreat is to allow refunds up to 30 days before the retreat.  We appreciate that unexpected events can happen, so we will attempt to give you a partial refund, should something happen after that date that prevents you from coming to the retreat. The fixed cost component of the retreat is about 30% of the total cost. This portion will not be refunded. The amount of any refund will depend on actual costs and will be at our discretion.
