Led by Tina Beattie

Tina Beattie reflects on themes of creation, sacramentality and prayer in dialogue with Pope Francis's encyclical, Laudato Si'. Drawing on a wide range of sources including medieval theology, ecofeminism, poetry, art and music, Tina asks how we might refocus our sense of sacramentality through contemplation on nature,  in order to heal the broken bonds of communication and care between ourselves and the natural world.

Starts at 10am and ends at 4pm. Please bring a packed lunch.

You can attend this day online via Zoom or in person at the House of Prayer.

Cost: £30
