Guided Retreats
Our guided retreats are times away from the busy-ness of our daily lives. Here we focus on the soul, rest, and receiving the gifts that the Spirit has for each person.
Our Story
In 2022, Elizabeth and Michael Palmer followed the leading of the Holy Spirit, moving their family from Northern California to St. Louis, Missouri. There, they founded The Center for Spiritual formation and retreat. Through The Center, the Palmers are seeking to invite all people to be rooted in love and formed in wholeness- a call which is open to all people.
Through the work of The Center, Michael and Elizabeth offer spiritual direction, practice-based spiritual formation cohorts, and guided retreats. They work with all seekers- pastors, doubters, curious, and those seeking to go deeper.
Do you have questions about your faith? Would you like to explore what it looks like to understand yourself and God more deeply? We would love to talk more.
