a partnership for hospitality, healing & community
The St. Francis Spirituality & Retreat Center is a strategic partner of Bloom, united by a shared commitment to hospitality, healing, and community.
With Bloom’s administrative offices located on the Retreat Center campus, this collaboration strengthens both organizations while creating a welcoming destination for individuals and groups seeking rest, reflection, learning, and renewal. Together, we are expanding opportunities, fostering meaningful community connections, and building long-term sustainability for our organizations and the people we serve.
By combining the Retreat Center’s rich tradition of hospitality with Bloom’s mission of healing and empowerment, this partnership creates a place where guests are welcomed with care and compassion while supporting initiatives that strengthen our community for years to come.

the gift shop
As part of our partnership, Bloom and the Retreat Center proudly collaborate on The Gift Shop at the St. Francis Retreat Center.
In addition to the traditional books, gifts, and devotional items you would expect to find in a Catholic gift shop, visitors will discover a thoughtfully curated collection of products that reflect Bloom’s mission of healing, hope, and restoration.
The Gift Shop features handcrafted items created by survivors and members of the Bloom community, including Bloom’s signature Circle of Sisterhood Bud Vases, rosaries, pottery crosses, bracelets, Bloom apparel, seasonal gifts, and more.
Guests can also shop Grounds for Restoration coffee and gift items, Thistle Farms bath and body products, jewelry, and other purpose-driven merchandise that supports organizations committed to healing, empowerment, and social impact.
Whether you’re looking for a meaningful gift or a special
reminder of your visit, every purchase helps support the missions of both Bloom
and the Retreat Center while celebrating craftsmanship, compassion, and
community.
