Give yourself the gift of a weekend set apart—a chance to step out of the noise and demands of daily life and enter a gentler rhythm of stillness, silence and song. From Friday evening through to Sunday lunchtime, there will be time to slow down, rest and become attentive to the movements of God in your life.Across the weekend, guided reflections, shared prayer and music will offer meaningful starting points for personal reflection. Spacious periods of quiet will allow you to sit with what emerges, pray in your own way, enjoy the surroundings or simply be still. There will also be opportunities to gather with others, creating a supportive balance between solitude and community without pressure to speak or share more than you wish.
You are welcome to arrive from 2pm on Friday, giving you time to settle in before the retreat begins at 5pm. No previous retreat experience is needed. Whether your faith feels strong, uncertain, changing or newly discovered—or you are simply drawn by a desire for peace and deeper meaning—this weekend is open to you. Come as you are, and leave with renewed perspective, a quieter heart and simple practices to carry into everyday life.
