CONTEMPLATIVE
CHRISTIANITY
in the Heart of West Marin
WELCOMING YOU TO
ST. COLUMBA'S INVERNESS
St. Columba's Episcopal Church and Retreat House is revitalizing its roots in the contemplative spirituality of the Celtic Christian tradition. Nestled on a mountainside overlooking Tomales Bay in Inverness, California, our retreat house is infused with the sacred presence of God in nature. We are an inclusive contemplative community incarnating the Mystical Body of Christ in Word, Sacrament, and spiritual intimacy.
Come to me, all you that are weary and heavy burdened and I will give you rest.
~Matthew 11:28
ABOUT OUR MISSION
Our Sunday Eucharist Service has resumed at 10am. Proof of vaccination required. Alternatively you may join our Online Morning Prayer Service at our Virtual Chapel at 11am PST.
ABOUT OUR RETREAT HOUSE
The Retreat House is currently open with Covid restrictions in place. We are welcoming those who wish a quiet, contemplative visit.
ABOUT OUR VICAR
Throughout his ministry here, Father Vincent has brought to our community a contemplative spirit and academic rigor promoting openness and hospitality in the Celtic Christian Tradition.
SERMONS
You search the scriptures
because you think that in them you have eternal life; but it is they that testify to me.
~John 5:39
