As we enter into the Lenten season, we invite you to spend time at Tau Center in personal reflection and peace. Please join us for any of our Lenten programs, take some personal time on retreat where you'll enjoy your own quiet room and access to our chapel and grounds, or join the Wheaton Franciscans for services at Our Lady of the Angels Chapel.
Tau Center offers a peaceful and reflective setting for individuals and groups seeking to carve out space for deepening their inner lives. Spend a retreat day at Tau Center and enjoy the grounds including our Peace Path, Chapel, Meditation Room and Quiet Rooms, as a way to reconnect with your authentic self, your dreams and visions, and the Divine within.
Many people long to find meaning in their lives, to discover their true selves, and to grow closer to God and others. But sometimes, it’s hard to know just where to start. Spiritual direction can be the next step on your journey if you long to find meaning in your spiritual life, discover your inner-self, and grow closer to God and to others.

In the midst of a chaotic and stressful world and busy lives full of details and demands, we often forget to pause, take a breath and contemplate the wonder and awe that is our “self”. The Holy Season of Lent is an apt time to take that pause. Together we will engage in a quiet, contemplative process to take a deep, yet gentle, look at our Wilderness Journey and to reconnect with the Spirit of God that accompanies us on each and every step.

Chakras are centers of life force or vital energy in the human body. Each of the chakras correspond to points in the physical body such as major arteries, veins and nerves, as well as vital organs. The energy that flows through our chakras effects not only the physical body but also our emotional and spiritual lives.

Drumming is a time-honored method of healing and helping others. While the drum has the ability to put us in touch with our own natural rhythms, the circle helps draw our individual energies together, unifying them into a consolidated force.
