Led by Jill Benet
‘Silence moves into stillness and stillness morphs into Presence.’ Thomas Keating
Join a small community for a weekend of prayer and practice, and reconnect with the Presence which surpasses all understanding – a Presence that we find missing and yet, at the deepest root of our self, is always there and always new.
This weekend is a time to refresh your practice of Centering Prayer and supporting practices and to find the place of stillness from which all movement arises.
It will include extended periods of Centering Prayer and silence, some input and a chance to share and to ask questions in the group or one to one with the retreat leader.
Arrive in time for supper at 7pm on Friday and depart by 4pm on Sunday.
Cost:
Ensuite: £240
Standard: £220
