The Space: A Creative Retreat

£592

An opportunity to explore creativity in fresh ways. We look forward to welcoming you to a 4-day creative retreat with Epiphany’s musicians.

God-given creativity is a beautiful gift that reflects the nature of our Creator. Made in God’s image, we have been entrusted with the ability to imagine, create, solve problems, and bring beauty into the world. As we draw closer to Him, we discover new ways to reflect His love and purpose, allowing His Spirit to inspire and guide the creative work He has placed within each of us.

Leading the retreat will be Epiphany’s skilled team offering gentle guidance throughout. Our times together will include relaxing, improvised music and reflective thoughts for each day. The rest of the time will give you the opportunity to enjoy and be inspired by the beautiful surroundings of Launde Abbey, have Epiphany’s musicians create a personal, musical sound portrait just for you, or to engage in art workshops facilitated by Rhona Knight, as well as an opportunity for conversation and sharing ideas.

Bring your musical instruments or art materials and enjoy stretching your creativity!

“I have been blown away by what you offer. In over 30 years of being involved with the retreat world, last week was without doubt the most anointed retreat I have ever experienced, and I don’t say that lightly. The Spirit moved in power through you all and the immersive nature of your music was both beautiful and powerful, as were your God-given insights.”

Epiphany is an innovative music group of professional musicians who love improvisation and creativity. Members of Epiphany have a passion for excellence in the arts. They believe that music should be expressed in creative ways; that it has a role not just to entertain but also to enhance the quality of life itself by bringing space into our fast-paced, hectic lives, relieving stress and bringing new perspectives. 

Epiphany has performed in many venues throughout the UK, Europe and beyond, including in the Houses of Parliament and many major art galleries as well as at the Ideal Home Show in London and at Royal Horticultural Society Flower Shows. They have taken their music to many other public spaces, including onto the streets and in shopping centres and have also worked extensively with disadvantaged groups including for refugees and asylum seekers, adults and young people with special needs, and recovering alcoholics & drug addicts. Epiphany’s website is at www.epiphanymusic.org.uk.

“Thanks to your ministry and openness to the spirit, I have been reminded of how gracious God is and how He is able to use all of us. I feel so much more hopeful and joyful with a re-ignited desire to use my music in worship. My friends and family have noticed a real change in me.”

“It is hard to encapsulate the immersive nature of this event in words… it is deeply special. God moved gently but powerfully among us all. Gentle reflections and the sensitive holding of ‘space’ led us into the blessings. Rhona’s contributions sensitively woven into the mix was a beautiful complement and enhancement. An AMAZING RETREAT.”
