Be Joyful. Keep the Faith. Do the Little Things

£474

In a world that can be anxious, abounding in distraction, and where the only thing that seems to matter is extraordinary achievement, Christians are called back to a simple but powerful way of living.

Join Catherine Williams in a quiet, spacious retreat shaped around St David’s famous words. St David doesn’t offer complicated strategies, grand plans, or even great vision. Instead, he takes us back to three foundations: joy, faith and small acts of love. Together, these form a gentle, grounding and sustaining rule of life. 

Take this opportunity at the beginning of Lent to slow down, rest and be attentive to the voice of God calling us to be joyful, keep the faith and do the little things.

This retreat will be led by Catherine Williams.

Catherine Williams is an Anglican priest with a portfolio ministry as a spiritual director, retreat leader, and writer. Catherine is the lead voice on the Daily Prayer app and editor of The Canterbury Preacher’s Companion, The Preacher magazine and Reflections for Daily Prayer.
