Pages & Peace - Silent Book Club

Sometimes the greatest gift is simply having uninterrupted time to read.

Books have a unique way of helping us slow down, see differently, and encounter new ideas, stories, and perspectives. This offering provides a simple opportunity to step away from the busyness of daily life and spend intentional time reading in the peaceful setting of St. Mary-on-the-Lake.

Participants are welcome to bring any book of their choosing and enjoy quiet reading in throughout the Center, or on our beautiful grounds. There is no assigned book, no required discussion, and no preparation needed. Instead, we gather in a spirit of shared stillness, knowing that reading itself can be a meaningful practice of reflection, learning, and renewal.

Whether you stay for the entire session or only part of it, we invite you to make yourself at home, turn a few pages, and enjoy the gift of quiet companionship.

All are welcome. However, because this program takes place within a retreat setting designed for quiet reflection, participation is limited to adults ages 18 and older.
