January Quiet Day – ‘Beginning a New Year: Working with the Grain’ ***FULLY BOOKED***

£46

Beginning a New Year: Working with the Grain

Woodworkers often speak of ‘working with the grain’ as they fashion wood into beautiful and useful items.

On this quiet day, there will be the opportunity to explore what this might mean for yourself and for the communities that you are part of. We will be using Scripture, art and poetry to explore this theme.

This Quiet Day will be led by Revd Catherine Wright.

Before coming to work at Launde Abbey in 2023, Catherine previously served as Director of Ministerial Formation at Ridley Hall and taught Christian History and Spirituality in the Cambridge Federation. Prior to that, she spent twelve years in the Diocese of Bath and Wells as Diocesan Director of Ordinands and Dean of Women Clergy. Her passion is to help disciples of Christ deepen their spiritual life and engage in worship, work, and mission. She is one of our College of Chaplains at Launde Abbey.

Catherine is married to Geoff Boucher, who is also ordained. Together, they enjoy long-distance walking, particularly along the South West Coastal Path and in the Derbyshire Peak District.

Quiet Day price: £46 includes lunch and coffee and tea throughout the day.
