I came to the christine center for a weekend to have some quiet reflection time to write my wedding vows. It was the perfect place to contemplate and write. The staff and volunteers are all wonderful. The grounds are beautiful. I even found a beautiful passage from a book in their library that made it into our wedding ceremony.
