Driving directions

From Interstate 5, take Exit # 212 (SR 532) and proceed west toward Stanwood/Camano Island for about 4 miles.

At the 72nd Avenue traffic signal, turn right onto 72nd Avenue. Go 1/4 mile, then take the first left onto 272nd Street and drive past the Stanwood High School (Caution: 20 M.P.H.)

Go past the schools and take the next left, 78th Avenue NW, and drive to the end of the street. St. Cecilia Church is on the right. Park in the parking lot and walk back two houses to the Carmelite Spirituality Center - the only house on the street with a red tile roof.
