An Invitation to Christ-Centered Wellness

Join us on retreat

Saturday, December 10, 2022 | 9 am–1 pm

St. Joseph’s Church in Greenwich Village
371 6th Ave, New York, 10014

This Advent, we invite you to experience a taste of Reform and explore the nine wellness pillars for whole person wellness. Together with Jackie and Dr. Bridget, we will help you keep your focus on Christ, prepare for His arrival, and live the season as wholly and holy as possible. We’ll identify the areas of your health that need the most attention, focus on what’s essential for your well-being, identify stressors, and share best practices to support your whole person: body, mind, and soul. 


This time of year, cultivating presence and maintaining our well-being can be especially challenging. Instead of being overcome by our anxieties, let’s shift our focus to ways we can intentionally prepare ourselves for the coming of the Lord.

Led by Reform Wellness

The brokenness of our humanity is never an obstacle for Christ; instead, it is an opportunity for restoration and reformation. When we empty ourselves of all that holds us back from seeking deeper relationship and healing, we create space for the Divine Healer to fill us with life in abundance.

We invite you to join us for a one-day retreat to encounter the Divine Physician through the sacraments. All are welcome!

Reclaim your whole-person identity in Christ

+ Assess the current state of your body and soul

+ Shift from self-reliance to reliance on Christ

+ Resources, tools, and best practices for holistic healing

+ Build a daily formation to support your well-being

+ Allow the Divine Physician to heal you from the inside out

Amidst all the busyness, we invite you to discover that what we’re all truly craving this season is rest, connection, and the Lord.

“I am so glad that Jesus was born in a stable. Because my soul is so much like a stable. It is so poor and in unsatisfactory condition because of guilt, falsehoods, inadequacies, and sin. Yet, I believe if Jesus can be born in a stable, maybe he can also be born in me.
