Weber Retreat and Conference Center buildings are currently closed to the public due to COVID-19, but we continue to provide workshops, retreats, and other programs online. Click on “Programs” above to learn more about our virtual offerings.
Weber Retreat & Conference Center is a vibrant, spiritual setting
where people of all faiths seek, engage, and grow in greater awareness.
Our Roots
A ministry of the Adrian Dominican Sisters since 1970, Weber Retreat & Conference Center is rooted in the Dominican foundations of study, prayer, community, and ministry.
Weber Center is a place for people of all faiths to experience world-class programming; enjoy quiet spaces for individual prayer, meditation, and contemplation; and for nonprofits to host their programs in a state-of-the-art affordable facility.
Weber Center is situated on 100 acres of wooded land on the campus of the Adrian Dominican Sisters’ Motherhouse in southeast Michigan.
