Programs & Retreats

Mercy by the Sea’s programs are designed to be as experiential as they are contemplative, and to appreciate the uniqueness of each individual. They offer opportunities to slow down and embrace silence, reconnect with a deeper reality and encourage exploration of our deepest longings and creative imagination. 

JOIN US FROM HOME

Online Programs

For those who aren't able to come to our beautiful sea-side grounds, we aim to bring it's spirit of peacefulness to you at home through programming you can participate in online. 

COME FOR THE DAY

Day Programs

Come and join us for a few hours or for the day by participating in one of our programs. We understand contemplation and action to be complementary and necessary to personal and societal transformation. Thus, as a sponsored work of the Sisters of Mercy of the Northeast since 1974, the Center’s programming is grounded in the community’s tradition of discerning and serving critical unmet needs of its particular time and place.

STAY WITH US

Retreats

Stay with us for an extended time for a Retreat at our beautiful sea-side property. Retreats allow us to withdraw from the busyness of life in order to reflect on and deepen our relationship with God. Mercy by the Sea offers retreats which facilitate this end in a variety of ways based on the particular retreat you choose. Take a look at the various offerings we currently have and find the right fit for you.
