Led by Jill Benet

A time to connect and rest in the presence that ‘surpasses all understanding’. This weekend is an opportunity to refresh our commitment to our Centering Prayer and supporting practices. This retreat is suitable for those establishing a practice of Centering Prayer and those who wish to spend time in quiet practice. There will be some teaching, extended periods of prayer and silence. 

Arrive in time for supper at 7pm on Friday and depart by 4pm on Sunday.

Cost: £180
