Pause, A Weekend Retreat for Women, Sydney

Friday 23 October 2026 @ 10:00 am - Sunday 25 October 2026 @ 4:00 pm

This popular retreat is being offered again in 2026 at Sevenhill SA in May, Brisbane in July, Melbourne and Sydney in October

Pause is a small group retreat for women who seek a time of prayer, guidance, and stillness amidst the natural transitions of life to discover the emerging call of transformation and flourishing that God is inviting you to.

These long weekend retreats are especially relevant for women in times of transition, whether that be menopause, retirement, or discerning a change or renewal.

Each day you are invited to personally enter a story from scripture of women and their transforming encounters with Jesus.

​There will be spacious time for listening, silent reflection, and accompaniment, helping you notice God’s presence in the movements of your life. You will be invited to deeper awareness of your desires, consolations, and discerning how God may be leading you toward freedom and flourishing.
This retreat will be held in the extensive gardens and old growth bushland of Peter Canisius House in Pymble Sydney.

Come and rest, rejuvenate and discover God’s love, wisdom and wish for you.

When: Friday 23rd October 10am – Sunday 25th October 4pm 2026
