Advent Guided Retreats

The practice of pausing to remember the first coming of Jesus and readying for the second coming of Jesus, which Advent prompts us to do, has been a gift for many. We've chosen Friday, December 1 and Friday, December 8, the Fridays on either side of the first Sunday of Advent, to offer retreats this year.
Advent is a time of remembering and readying for the coming of Christ, but it can often feel like a time of both too-muchness and not-enough-ness. Especially if you are walking alongside others in this season (children, congregants, parishioners, patients, and beyond), it may well be that your own hunger for a meaningful observation of the season is pushed to the margins as you create a path for others.
This guided retreat will include time for your own remembering and readying. We'll give space to allow things to arise and to tend to them, and that may include longing, hope, celebration, penitence, exhaustion, grief, recalling, reflecting, and preparing.
Each half-day retreat includes an introduction and teaching on Advent for any who may be new to the holy season or the Christian year (or longing for a more meaningful observance of it). The center portion of the retreat will be spent alone in prayer, reflection, and preparation. The last part of our time together will be to re-gather for noticing, questions, workshopping, and further connection. Each retreat date is a stand-alone invitation to join other retreat makers, though if you'd like more time and space for your remembering and readying, you might consider joining us for both days.
No familiarity with Advent or the liturgical year is needed to join a guided retreat! Beginners and long-time observers alike will benefit from the intentional time spent in retreat.

Half-day Online Retreat: each guided retreat will gather via Zoom for one hour, send retreat-makers off for two hours, and gather again for one hour with info and meeting links delivered ahead of time via email. We will also provide some recommendations for how to choose where you will make retreat, whether at home, at your church, at a retreat center, or anywhere that you can connect to the internet.

We create tools rooted in ancient practices and rhythms but translated with a clean aesthetic, and accessible language. We create courses to help you learn, practice, and connect with kindred spirits. We curate resources that help you fill out your toolkit. Ultimately, we believe that helping people grow in Christlikeness will build the church and, in turn, the kingdom. The building blocks are sacred, ordinary days.
What types of shipping services do you offer?
We ship all over the world! In the USA, we currently offer free shipping on all orders valued at $75 and above (applied at checkout) and flat rate shipping of $5 or $8 per package on orders valued under $75, depending on total package weight. International pricing varies by region and cost is calculated at checkout.
How quickly will my order ship?
Digital products are automatically sent by email shortly after you place your order. Physical products are shipped from our warehouse in Waco, TX on weekday afternoons. You'll receive an email with tracking information when your order is shipped.
Can I change my shipping address, email or payment info?
Because our orders ship daily, we may not be able to change your information before your order is processed and shipped. For that reason, please verify your shipping address at checkout before submitting your order. If you find an error, contact us as soon as possible and we will try our hardest to make corrections before the order goes out. We try to check email for any shipping-related updates before printing labels.
What is your return policy?
We do our best to describe and depict each product with great care and detail. For that reason we created the FREE Essentials Workbook to give you a closer look at the design of our planner. The Essentials Workbook will help you evaluate if our product is a good fit for you before you spend any money. You can often purchase digital sample months of the planners to try before you buy. Our planner isn't a perfect fit for everyone, though. We haven't set out to be. It's not possible! That said, let us know if you find an issue and we will do our best to make it right.
If your physical product is damaged or defective, or you receive the wrong product, please contact us with your name, order number, and nature of the issue at hello@sacredordinarydays.com and we will address your concern as quickly as possible.
