A sanctuary for individuals, families, retreats, business meetings and meaningful events. The purpose of the Center for Regenerative Ecological Education & Enterprise Development CREEED is to foster a new relationship between the human species and the Earth as outlined in Pope Francis's encyclical Laudato si'. This message includes a focus on the way we relate to our natural environment our understanding of our place in the world and the way in which we interact with other species and with other human beings. We take inspiration from the great wisdom traditions and understanding of the human-nature connection and seek to foster mindful awareness in all of our activities with each other and the Earth. We welcome individual and group retreatants in the spirit of hospitality offered by the great Medieval and contemporary monasteries.
