"Take a long, loving look at the real." ~Walter Burghardt
GIM Retreats were developed in 1982 by Sr. Joan King, OP, a Dominican Sister of San Rafael under the sponsorship of the Personal Growth Project. GIM operates as a collaborative effort of lay and religious women of different traditions and congregations, to provide GIM retreats for anyone seeking new possibilities for spiritual growth.
