DATES
July 23–25, 2027
LOCATION
Archbishop Brunett Retreat Center at the Palisades | Federal Way, Washington
For 20 years, Selah has been a community shaped by the practice of pausing, listening deeply, and responding to the movement of the Spirit. As we celebrate this milestone, we invite you to join us for a weekend of communal listening, joyful celebration, and shared discernment.
Inspired by the contemplative invitation to take a long loving look at the real, this retreat is not simply about remembering our history. It is an opportunity to celebrate the grace that is present, to notice the gifts that have been entrusted to this community, and to listen together for God’s invitation as we continue to grow into who we are called to be.
Together, we will create spaciousness to reflect on the journey that has shaped Selah, celebrate the relationships and stories that have sustained us, and embrace what is emerging with curiosity, hope, and trust. Rather than asking, “What should Selah become?” we will practice noticing who Selah is already becoming through the faithful work of the Spirit among us.
Our time together will include contemplative practices, worship, generous conversation, creative reflection, shared meals, laughter, silence, music, and celebration. There will be space for reconnecting with old friends, welcoming new ones, and simply enjoying being together as a community.
The retreat will be held at the beautiful Archbishop Brunett Retreat Center at the Palisades in Federal Way, Washington.
ACCOMMODATIONS
- 15 single rooms
- 5 shared double rooms
- Commuter registration for those who prefer to travel each day
Space is limited to 25 overnight participants, and we encourage early registration.
Come pause with us. Celebrate what is. Listen for what is emerging. Together, we’ll take a long loving look at the real and discover anew the invitations God is placing before Selah.
COST
The standard cost for the retreat is above. While this price reflects the true cost of creating and offering it, we believe that transformation and celebration belong to everyone that’s why we are committed to reducing financial barriers to participation. We’re offering a community supported price level, a reduced rate so you can choose the one that best aligns with your current financial circumstances. We also know there are others who can offer more than the standard cost who can pay it forward. If you are interested in either of those options, please reach out to Mary Pandiani, director@selahcenter.org to find out those costs. As well, there are scholarships available.
