Hospitality
Living one’s life in service of others, in a commitment to welcome guests in love and a spirit of prayer.
The Rule of Richmond Hill
We foster hospitality at Richmond Hill not only through the various programs and services we offer, but also by keeping an open-door policy for prayers and eucharists. Â Open Communion is also practiced as an act of hospitality. All are welcome.
The garden, chapel, and lounge are open to the public and free to tour and enjoy as a brief pause in your day between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, and on weekends by appointment. If you wish to stay for an extended length of time, we hope you might consider a personal retreat. On Mondays, the facility is closed to the public so that the residential community may honor the sabbath.
Other ways to experience the hospitality of Richmond Hill:
- Allow Richmond Hill to host your own group retreat for your church or organization
- Come retreat for a day or stay overnight on a personal retreat
- Join with the community in daily prayers or weekly community worship
I think our biggest act of hospitality is that we’re consistently offering people room – room to pray, room to recover, to refresh…to decompress.
