----------------------------------------------------------------------Methodist Silent Retreats at Douai Abbey: 6th – 8th February and 12th – 15th May 2015.
Explore different ways of praying and being. Led sessions and time for your own thoughts and prayer.
The February retreat is for those new to silence, with several led sessions and, if you wish, a one-one time
with a spiritual guide. The longer retreat in May is intended for those who wish to go deeper, with one led
session and a one-one with a spiritual guide each day, thus leaving plenty of ‘soul space’ for your own
prayer and reflection.
For further information and a booking form contact Connie Jeffery. If you would like to go but have
financial difficulties please contact Rev Brenda Woods.
