SUMMARY:Be Joyful. Keep the Faith. Do the Little Things
DESCRIPTION:BOOK NOW\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn 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. \n\n\n\nJoin 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.  \n\n\n\nTake 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. \n\n\n\nOLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA\n\n\n\nThis retreat will be led by Catherine Williams. \n\n\n\nCatherine 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. Passionate about prayer\, poetry\, theatre\, music and butterfly conservation\, Catherine lives in Norfolk with her husband\, Paul.   \n\n\n\nEARLY BIRD RATE: £474 (standard room) or £519 (character room) if booked by 7th December 2026Retreat price: £504 (standard room) or £549 (character room) \n\n\n\nPrice includes en-suite accommodation\, all meals\, and all retreat resources.

SUMMARY:Living with Loss
DESCRIPTION:book now\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHave you been struggling since the death of your loved one? \n\n\n\nCome and join with others who have also experienced life-changing loss through bereavement. The aim of this supported retreat is to help you cope with your grief. Through a creative variety of activities\, including led sessions\, discussions and quiet reflection\, we explore the journey of grief\, with a focus on finding a way forward in the changed circumstances that are the result of bereavement. It includes a special time of candle-lighting remembrance. This is a gentle retreat with a Christian perspective\, sensitively led by Abi May and team\, suitable for those who have lost a husband or wife\, children or other close family members\, or who have suffered multiple losses.   \n\n\n\nHere’s a comment from Tricia in West London:  \n\n\n\n“Thank you so much for all you’ve done in supporting me (and so many other people) with your wonderful\, inspiring\, lovingly gentle Living with Loss Retreats. I have learnt so much & found numerous ways to manage my grief & be gentle on myself in the process.   \n\n\n\nI have absolutely loved both the retreats I’ve attended. The balance of grief support & social activities allowed me to find my feet & focus again.”  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbi May runs the ‘Living with Loss’ project\, which is a member of the National Bereavement Alliance.  She is an experienced retreat leader\, bereavement author and educator\, as well as being a bereaved mother. Her grief support retreats and training courses have been held in locations throughout the UK as well as online since 2016.
