I facilitate contemplative retreats and days of reflection rooted in Ignatian spirituality that invite people deeper in their walk with Christ.
– Becky Eldredge
Offer Rest within the Busyness
Invite people to pause and be still by offering a contemplative retreat experience to your parish, diocese, ministry organization, faculty, retreat house, ministry leaders, or spirituality center.
Take Your Group Deeper
Give people space to pray and to reflect on their own experience with God to make your retreat, days and evenings of reflection, workshop, conference, or silent retreat, a moment to encounter Christ.
Transform Lives
Offer people the opportunity to engage with the 500-year-old practical wisdom of Ignatian Spirituality by helping them learn tools for prayer and discernment to incorporate into their daily lives long after the retreat ends.
Inviting You Deeper As We Walk with Christ
I partner with ministry organizations to offer contemplative retreats and days of reflection to support you in meeting the spiritual needs of your community. All of my retreats and days of reflection are rooted in Ignatian spirituality and invite people deeper in their walk with Christ.
In order to plan the right retreat for your organization, I will take time to get to know you, to learn about your community, and to listen to your hopes for the retreat. Together, we will determine the appropriate theme, length, and format to address the needs you see in your community.
My approach and style
My retreats include storytelling that illuminates tools and wisdom from Ignatian spirituality, guided prayer experiences and time for personal reflection. Each retreat offers busy women and men opportunities to pause, to be still, and to encounter God.
Drawing on my experience as an Ignatian-trained Spiritual Director, I walk with people and invite them deeper in their relationship with God by offering practical tools for prayer and discernment. Let me bring the hope and encouragement found in a relationship with God to your group.
“While studying “Busy Lives & Restless Souls” in our Journey Together weekly book study, Becky became alive to us through the pages of her book. We felt so comfortable and connected to her that we invited her to lead us in a full day retreat. Our retreat, “Making Room for God in the Busyness: A Women’s Day of Reflection” was the practical application of Becky’s spiritual depth and breadth in our hunger for direction. We have been particularly blessed to have Becky be with us on our faith journey as women of Christ.”
