St. Columba's is an Episcopal Church and Retreat House rooted in the Celtic Christian tradition. We are an inclusive contemplative community incarnating the Mystical Body of Christ in Word, Sacrament, and spiritual intimacy.
Did you catch St. Columba's in the Point Reyes light? Help us spread the word about the individual and group retreat openings to stay in the beautiful historic Frick family summer home in the heart of West Marin. We're already planning for 2026!

On Sunday, we celebrated the feast day of St. Columba.

Founder of the Iona monastery, Columba’s legacy lives on in our community—shaped by prayer, hospitality, and deep connection to creation.

May we walk in his footsteps with courage, faith, and compassion.

Come spend some time in St. Mary's Library, located just behind our nave.
