Monte Alverno Retreat and Spirituality Center in Appleton will make its facilities available to businesses for retreats and conferences, beginning in January.
Monte Alverno is a spirituality and retreat center that offers programs to renew peace of mind. The center welcomes people of all faiths.
"It’s a natural fit," Capuchin friar and Monte Alverno director Keith Clark said. "Our facility provides a perfect setting for those businesses who are seeking a site that is quiet and reflective."
The atmosphere at the center promotes reflection and tranquility, Clark said. The center provides 25 acres of land along the Fox River in Appleton.
Monte Alverno Retreat and Spirituality Center is a Capuchin ministry and is part of the Capuchin Province of St. Joseph, which is headquartered in Detroit and has ministries worldwide. Costs vary depending on the number of meals, use of private rooms and other rooms or equipment.
"Our retreat center is booked nearly every weekend for our spiritual retreats," Clark said. "Hosting area businesses will allow the use of the facility during the weekdays. We don’t want to compete with a local hotel’s meeting facility. There are times when a business leadership team needs to gather in comfortable chairs, gaze out to a beautiful scene and tap into their creative spirit. Those are the meetings we wish to attract."
