Adrift in Delight: A Contemplative Intensive
We’re offering this retreat at a reduced price due to short notice.
A quiet space has become available in the rhythm of life at Launde Abbey, and we felt called to offer a contemplative intensive retreat in this space — to provide those who practise contemplation the time and space to deepen their practise (whether centring prayer, Christian meditation, mindfulness or some other approach). We hope it will be a blessing to those who need time to rest, reflect, and be still with God.
Led by our Deputy Warden, Revd Chris Webb.£240.00 -
