About Us

Transformations Spirituality Center, a sponsored ministry of the Congregation of St. Joseph is located within their motherhouse in Nazareth, Michigan (on Gull Road, just outside of Kalamazoo.)

We offer spiritual programming for guests from any faith tradition, and seekers without a specific tradition. Programs vary to meet people’s needs, and all are intended to support participants in becoming more grounded in the Spirit.  Our retreats and day programs use the arts, literature, contemplative practice, and other modalities as paths for growing more authentic.

​We also host many looking to spend some time "away" to reconnect on retreat by themselves, or build the community of a group. All enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. Spiritual direction can be included with retreats.

Our retreat center offers:
~ spiritually uplifting programs
~ group and individual spiritual direction
~ community-building programs including speakers like Meg Wheatley, Peter Block, Tom Beech
~ A 55-acre natural campus with hiking trails and room to just be
