This weekend residential retreat was conceived by two mothers (and a few dear friends) who sought a safe setting and extended time to focus on grieving the sudden loss of their adult children. Meadowlark was created to give grieving mothers a place to share their stories and feelings with others who had been through the same kind of loss. Healing emerges powerfully from this. Here is what some mothers have said….

“To simply say “Thank You” would never come close to the overwhelming gratitude I have for all of you who have allowed us mothers to gather in a beautiful, safe place to continue our very difficult journey of losing our children.” ~ Meadowlark retreat mother

“Being with other mothers who have experienced the same loss was an incredible experience, I felt “heard” and understood and taken care of – thank you” ~ Meadowlark Retreat mother

The retreat is professionally facilitated, with staff attending to meals. It will be held in a private home that offers an oasis with gardens and a pool – space to reflect, walk, and rest. Meadowlark Retreat will offer its seven attendees
community, compassion, understanding and tender loving care.

Participant Cost for Weekend Retreat: $450**

**Note: Although retreat expenses per participant are $1400, a donation from the Tim Griffith Foundation is underwriting the majority of retreat expenses to ensure costs do not prohibit mothers from attending. There are also sponsorships available for those that may need additional assistance.

Meadowlark Retreat is presented by the Tim Griffith Foundation in collaboration with Kara.
