Those of us who have been neighbors to this land for many years know what it has held. For decades, Harmony Hill offered something quiet and essential to people navigating one of life's most difficult passages — a place to come apart from the noise of illness and treatment, to sit with others who understood, and to find, if even for a few days, a gentler footing.

​

When this campus came into the care of St. Andrew's House and the Diocese of Olympia, we did not come as strangers to that purpose. We came as inheritors of it. The work of healing, of building community, and of caring gently for the earth we share has always been at the heart of our mission here. That Harmony Hill's retreat program — now carried forward by Cancer Lifeline — continues to call this place home is something we receive with genuine gratitude.

​

We are also very proud to be Presenting Sponsors for Cancer Lifeline, because of the collaboration we have to support the continuance of the 3-Day Cancer Retreats being held at Sacred Waters Center.

​

Cancer Lifeline's 3-Day Cancer Retreats remain a cornerstone of that legacy. We warmly invite anyone touched by a cancer diagnosis to consider joining one of the upcoming retreats held here at Sacred Waters Center in Union:

• August 28–30, 2026 — Register here
