Life at the Retreat


At the Gembrook Retreat there is a dynamics that is rare. It must have a lot to do with the numbers of children and the free Spirit in the place. There is acceptance and respect of each other there and these values include and create time for others to come in and share their lives, sometimes for just a few days, but for others even years. God is acknowledged at times in creative openness and at meal times with barely a whisper. Overt Quaker elements enhance and embellish the many lives that make this dynamic work, through sickness happiness and health.
