The ecumenical retreat and conference center is run by the Dominican Sisters of Hope.

Bisson, a Marist brother from Esopus, will present “Ordinary Mystics: Living Intense Prayers in the World” from Thursday, June 23, through Sunday, June 26.

Sandra Lommasson, founder and executive director of Bread of Life, a faith-based educational nonprofit, called Bisson “a gifted teacher and guide” who “makes the journey accessible to any who are ready to undertake the holy, healing journey into a deepening relationship with God -- and into a better understanding of self.”

The silent, directed retreat at Mariandale will, organizers said, invite “participants to go deeper into their experiences of God.”

The fee can range from $360 to $380, depending on the participant’s ability to pay.

It includes overnight accommodations, meals, and the program itself.

The center is located at 299 N. Highland Ave.
