Welcome to Hineni 

We create welcoming spaces to slow down, listen to God, and practice a sustainable life of prayer. Facilitating solitary work that cannot be done alone through Scripture, guided practices, silence, and fellowship, we nurture spiritual formation that becomes love in action.

Pilgrimage

Pilgrimage is an ancient path of the soul. It is a journey made with intention, where travel becomes sacred and the landscape becomes a teacher. Pilgrims step away from ordinary rhythms to walk toward places where the heart can listen more deeply for God.

At Hineni, pilgrimage is not simply about reaching a destination. It is about allowing the journey itself to shape us through silence, beauty, community, and sacred reflection.

If something within you feels stirred by the call to walk a sacred path, we invite you to explore our upcoming pilgrimages and take the next step on the journey.

Our Mission

Hineni gathers people to practice Christian contemplative prayer, nurturing spiritual transformation that becomes love in action in the world.

Our Core Values

Scripture is our foundation, Christ is our example, and the Holy Spirit guides our work. We honor every person as created in God’s image and welcome each into a compassionate community where the soul can feel safe. Through solitude, silence, and shared spiritual practices, we make space for God’s transforming presence. We serve with humility, trust God to lead, and give God the glory.
