A welcome from Bishop Carl Kemme

“Welcome to the Spiritual Life Center! The Center serves as a destination for groups to experience retreats and conferences in an inviting modern environment with cutting-edge technology and warm hospitality. The mission of the Spiritual Life Center focuses on hospitality, adult education, spiritual formation, and lay leadership training.

Opened in 1990 by the Catholic Diocese of Wichita, the Spiritual Life Center is situated on thirty-eight acres of beautifully landscaped nature, which includes two miles of walking paths, an outdoor Stations of the Cross, and an amphitheater. The Center has two chapels, seven conference rooms, and individual bedrooms with private baths to host as many as 114 overnight guests.

The Spiritual Life Center also offers dining services, serving delicious meals, as well as complementary coffee and water. Other amenities include a bookstore, free Wi-Fi, a library, and many places to rest and reflect. The Spiritual Life Center as a retreat and conference center, welcomes many religious groups of other faith traditions as well as community non-profit organizations.

With great joy, I invite you to rest, to renew your heart, to restore your hope, to respond to the Word of God at the Spiritual Life Center
