Retreats

This silent retreat centres on the mystical Feast of the Transfiguration. We will approach it through the lens of paradox. Its paradoxes shine an energizing light onto our own lives, […]

The aim of this semi-silent retreat weekend is to help you enter the world of silent retreats gently and with plenty of support. There will be guidance on how to use the time; periods on your own and with the other retreatants, and the opportunity to share your experience with others if you wish to do so. Led by members of the Launde Abbey Community.

This two-day retreat will be an intimate conversation with one of the greatest exponents of the love of God, Bernard of Clairvaux, a French twelfth-century monk. It will offer teaching, worship, prayer, times of silence and the opportunity for individual appointments with the retreat conductor and relaxation in the grounds and surrounding countryside. Led by Jenny Campbell.

Through a flow of talks and extended meditation practice, we will explore the teaching of Meister Eckhart. The retreat has been carefully crafted to be relevant and accessible to anyone searching for truth and peace, regardless of their faith, beliefs or previous experience of meditation. Led by Chris Whittington, founder of The School of Contemplative Life.

During this four-day retreat, guests will experience a variety of body-based prayer practices and opportunities to grow in awareness and understanding of how our body’s design and wisdom foster a deep and fulfilling prayer life with God. Led by Hope Stockman and Rhona Knight.
