Who We Are:
Founded in 1969 by Connie Furrer and the late
Frances Dudley, The Snail's Pace is a non-profit ministry
of hospitality offering: 
- Renewal
- Restoration
- Warm fellowship
- Spiritual guidance
- Quiet days for groups
- Personal guided retreats
- Personal silent retreats
Come to The Snail’s Pace for a weekend or a mid-week
stay, for quiet hours or days of personal retreat.
We offer special weekend retreats. The details are included
in our quarterly newsletter.
Also, click on "Schedule" in the menu on the left
for retreat information.
Please join us on Wednesday and Saturday mornings for Bible
meditation and reflection.
Our
ministry is Christian---and ecumenical, meaning that we
are not part of any one denomination. This enables
us to love and serve Christ in people of all faiths and
walks. We are not a conference center, but rather
a place for spiritual rest and renewal.
The
staff is trained in spiritual direction and is available
to guests during their retreat for conversation and prayer
regarding matters of faith and spirituality. The "program"
is centered around meal-times, prayer together, and plenty
of quiet time with the Lord.
Rather
than a denominational practice, our practice is contemplative
and we are open to the various wonderful translations of
God's word, such as The New Jerusalem Bible, NIV, NRSV,
The New English Bible, and Peterson's The Message.
