Christ the King is operated by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Syracuse NY as a special address in the community: “It’s a peaceful place,” says Anne Richter, a member of the House staff of seven people. “You kind of feel God here.”
The diocese welcomes visitors of all faiths to the retreat house, “for either a casual stroll around our peaceful grounds” or overnight guests there for a retreat.

When driving south from Boston this month, your attention may be captivated by a rather unexpected sight along Route I-93S: a giant billboard proclaiming that “All are Welcome at Glastonbury Abbey.”
Glastonbury Abbey in Cohasset, MA, provides a place where men and women can enrich themselves spiritually. The Abbey is a place of welcome, prayer, and peace in a time fraught with spiritual and economic uncertainty. The beautiful and peaceful grounds provide visitors a setting in which to find an oasis away from the pressures and frenetic pace of contemporary life.
The Monks encourage all to experience a Benedictine approach to life – to sit quietly, ponder, pray, and be renewed. All are welcome.
