Angel Retreat House, at a cost of $200.00 per person, this includes a room, with bath; or for a cost of $100.00 to commute to Mt Angel and either stay at home or make your own arrangement in the local area. Either alternative includes all presentations and meals listed on the schedule below, and the beautiful tranquility of Mt. Angel to inspire your reflections. One of the highlights of visiting Mt. Angel is the opportunity to participate with the Benedictine monks in their prayers throughout the day.
