SUMMARY:Holy Week with the Launde Abbey Community
DESCRIPTION:Holy Week at Launde Abbey — Monday 30th March to Sunday 5th April \n\n\n\nDuring Holy Week\, the Launde Abbey Community changes its pattern of prayer and worship\, leading up to and including the Great Triduum from Maundy Thursday to Easter Morning. You are invited to join us for a single day\, several days\, staying overnight\, or even for the whole week. \n\n\n\nThis is not a structured retreat; your time is your own and you can choose to use it in the way most beneficial to you. \n\n\n\nEach day will include an adapted pattern of prayer and worship led by the Launde Abbey Community\, alongside a simple daily theme to guide personal reflection. On selected days\, there are additional bookable offerings\, including a Quiet Day on Monday\, Soul Filled Meanderings on Tuesday and Wednesday and more! These can be joined to an overnight stay or attended as a day guest. \n\n\n\nOvernight accommodation is available throughout the week and can be booked directly via our website (press ‘Book Now’ and select the Holy Week dates to view prices and availability). \n\n\n\n\nbook now\n\n\n\n\nWe invite you to come at your own pace\, and to shape your time here around what you most need: quiet\, prayer\, rest\, or gentle engagement with the themes of Holy Week. \n\n\n\nBelow is a schedule for the week to help you plan your stay.
