Review for Oasis Ministries for Spiritual Development, Camp Hill, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My experience with Oasis is that it is a space in which I am both deeply received and opened.....a refuge and an oasis. It has truly become a place of 'ahhhh', where I almost immediately experience a sense of peace within myself, a return to who I am, and a sense of well-being and wholeness. I am restored to my center in Love, from which I can go forth into the other places of my life with a heart full and at peace.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the way in which I feel about myself, and the ways in which I can carry that feeling with me into life.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

buy it a retreat house!

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

the way in which I have found belonging and hope. The people.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

welcoming, warm, peaceful, whole, joyous, contemplative.

Ways to make it better...

Oasis had a physical home, where one might go for daily quiet time when one feels the need for sanctuary, solitude and/or prayer.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

communicating the Oasis experience so that others might find it. Their work is soo very experiential and transformative that words fall short.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every six months
