SUMMARY:Quiet day at the Royal Foundation of St Katharine
DESCRIPTION:Mark Oakley ‘I will lament\, and love’ a day exploring George Herbert\n\n19th September 2026\, 10:15 – 16:00\n\n\nA Quiet Day led by Mark Oakley\n‘I will lament\, and love’: a day exploring George Herbert \nGeorge Herbert’s poems have been described as ‘heart-work and heaven-work’. Many of us know one or two of his poems because they are sung as hymns. The full range of Herbert’s poems\, however\, reveal both devotion and dereliction\, reverence and rebellion\, peace and restlessness. The love he experiences from God required him to be honest about his life and faith\, including his agitated mind\, which he referred to as a ‘case of knives’. In this quiet day\, we will spend time with Herbert’s poems to discover how the resonance of his poetry introduces us to him but also to ourselves\, the world and to God.

SUMMARY:Quiet Day at the Royal Foundation of St Katharine
DESCRIPTION:Unmaking Mary: Shattering the myth of divine motherhood with Chine McDonald\n\n24th October 2026\, 10:15 – 16:00\n\n\nFor 2\,000 years\, the Virgin Mary has been depicted throughout art\, literature and culture as symbolising the perfect mother: chaste\, beautiful\, meek\, mild and white. These supposed virtues and symbols have shaped not just Christianity but wider popular culture; and have contributed to harmful views about motherhood and what it is to be a woman. This retreat will offer a time for reflection on the impacts of these tropes on us\, and attempt to create a space to exhale; freeing ourselves from the burden of perfection. \nChine is Director of Theos\, the religion and society think tank. She was previously Head of Public Engagement at Christian Aid and spent two decades working in journalism\, media and communications across faith\, media and international development.

DESCRIPTION:‘Joining God’s Repair Shop’ a Quiet Day ~ with Brother Sam\n\n7th November 2026\, 10:15 – 16:00\n\n\nCome to spend a day at this urban oasis of the Royal Foundation of St Katharine. \nThis special day will be led by Brother Samuel \nJoining God’s Repair Shop\n‘Kneeling before a large crucifix in the ruined church of St Damian outside the walls of Assisi\, the young Francis\, seeking the Lord’s will\, heard the words: “Repair my house\, which you see is in ruins”. Setting about the task with a few companions who became the nucleus of his brotherhood\, the work in the years ahead grew wider and deeper. It involved the repair of relationships within the Lord’s family\, within and between communities in conflict\, and with those considered enemies or outcast. \nFor Francis\, Christ’s gentle repair extended even to the family of creation. On this Quiet Day we’ll be reflecting on how\, by becoming artisans in the Lord’s “Repair Shop”\, we may ourselves be restored\, renewed and transformed.’

SUMMARY:Quiet Day at the Royal Foundation of St Katharine
DESCRIPTION:Agony in the Garden: Art and Faith from Eden to Gethsemane\n\n21st November 2026\, 10:15 – 16:00\n\n\nIn conjunction with St Pauls Cathedral a retreat day with Debbie Lewer. \nIn conjunction with St Pauls Cathedral a retreat day with Debbie Lewer \nAgony in the Garden: Art and Faith from Eden to Gethsemane\nOver centuries\, artists of all kinds have vividly imagined gardens as places of abundance and desolation\, as the settings for temptation and transformation and as the stage for human and holy drama. This retreat day is a chance to explore gardens real and imagined in visual art from these perspectives. We will look at gardens designed and made by artists\, and as they appear in paintings\, prints\, drawings\, photographs and more. Drawing on imagery from Eden to Gethsemane and beyond\, we will reflect especially on the theological significance of these green spaces\, sites of solace\, turmoil and life-changing encounter.
