As the crisp autumn mornings draw in, take a couple of hours, put on your coat and boots and explore and experience God’s creation. A guided walk led by Jo de Graaf.

In this retreat, led by Rhona Knight, we will be prayerfully and creatively considering the nature of hope and hopeful waiting in the context of advent as, with all of creation, we wait upon God and cry Maranatha. Come, Lord Jesus. 

This year, we are focussing our Advent Quiet Day on the Jesse Tree. Taking its name from Isaiah 11:1, a Jesse Tree is traditionally a bare branch that holds symbols of people from the Old Testament, Jesus' family tree. We will trace the ancestry of Jesus back through the Old Testament to where it all began in Genesis 1. This quiet day will be led by our Resident Chaplain, Revd Fran Graham.

You might want to be more resilient in the face of exhausting demands. You might be looking for a deeper foundation for your ministry. You might be wrestling with the question: how do I live a flourishing life? If so, this retreat is for you. 

Amidst the warm glow of candlelight, join us at Launde Abbey for an afternoon of Music and Readings to prepare for the season. We will be immersed in the beauty of scripture and song, and you can stay afterwards for mulled wine and mince pies. A Launde Abbey Fundraising Event.
