"It was more than I could've hoped for. You were all so good to be so quiet yourselves so that I could be quiet.  I love you all!  Peace!  I will recommend it to my friends."

 ---- Anne

 

" I just wanted to say "hi' and tell you what a wonderful time we had at Sea of Peace. Many thanks to you both for your hospitality, your listening ears and your knack of being present or absent at any given time-- whichever seemed appropriate!  Based on my own perception of how Sea of Peace is being presented, I'd venture to say that it has a long, healthy future."
-- Jeanne from Columbia

 

 

" I can still close my eyes and see the 'turret room', bathed in sunlight with those white wicker rockers bidding a cozy welcome and respite. I can see the marshes through the turret windows, standing tall against the tidal waters that gleam with the sun's reflection. I can see the pond and the lake sparkling in the morning sun and the splendor of those magnificent wading birds--
the herons, the egrets, the ibisses...as I continue with my daily centering prayer, I can recall the richness of those morning prayers we shared
and the sweetness of the evening prayers and blessings....I send you my heartfelt gratitude for the opportunity of retreating at Sea of Peace...."...
--- Susan from Alaska

 

 

" Sea of Peace couldn't be more perfect. You provided things I didn't even know I needed!"

  --- Joan

 

" I'm grateful for all the care, comfort and nourishment."

 ---- Liz                   

 

"My time at Sea of Peace met my needs beyond my expectations.  Being nutured by this calm environment that was respectful of my need for time alone and time in fellowship. Having all my meals prepared for me was a huge blessing. Centering prayer, the labyrinth and one-on-one spiritual direction were all perfect for where I am. ...it was an answer to prayer to have someone
else who is more objective and has spiritual wisdom to recognize ...where I am and confirm my need to rest and to "just be".
Thank you for everything, you were wonderful" Connie, Apex, N.C.

 

"Our weary souls needed respite, and we were truly able to rest here"

--- Mia from Georgia

 

 

"What a wonderful space of peace, healing and loving hospitality you provided for me.  I thank the Lord you had an opening for me when I needed it."

--- Helen from Columbia
