SUMMARY:Garden Working party at Shallowford House
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the year\, our Garden Working Parties bring together volunteers who share a heart for service\, community\, and caring for God’s creation. These special events are a wonderful opportunity to refresh the grounds of our Retreat Centre while building friendships and enjoying time together in a peaceful and welcoming setting. \nThis year\, volunteers will be gathering on the following dates:March 23 to 26July 6 to 9October 12 to 15 \nDuring each working party\, volunteers help with planting flowers\, tidying pathways\, maintaining garden beds\, and preparing outdoor spaces for guests who come to the centre seeking rest and renewal. Every task\, whether large or small\, plays an important part in making the Retreat Centre a place of beauty\, peace\, and hospitality. \nAll accommodation and meals are provided\, allowing volunteers to focus fully on serving and enjoying fellowship. Days are filled with practical work\, shared meals\, prayer\, and meaningful conversations. Many who attend say that these times of working together are just as refreshing for the soul as they are productive for the gardens. \nThe Garden Working Parties are also part of our wider Helping Hands ministry. Alongside gardening\, volunteers often support the centre by baking\, preparing refreshments\, welcoming guests\, decorating indoor spaces\, and assisting during events. Everyone is encouraged to use their own skills and talents to help strengthen and grow the ministry. \nWe are deeply thankful for every person who gives their time and energy to support the Retreat Centre in this way. The impact of these working parties is seen not only in the gardens but in the lives of those who serve and those who later come to enjoy this peaceful place. \nIf you would like to be part of one of our upcoming Garden Working Parties\, we would love to hear from you. Your help truly makes a difference\, and together we continue to grow a place of welcome\, healing\, and hope. \n

SUMMARY:Holy Island Retreat with Christian Retreats
DESCRIPTION:Monday 12th to Friday 16th October 2026 \nA while ago\, I toured a theatre production ‘Illumination’\, as part of the Lindisfarne Gospels Exhibition in Durham. Researching the play was a real adventure. It is a lifetime’s journey to come to a deeper knowing of the ancient Celtic Christian faith\, and it continues to inspire\, fascinate me and deepen my Christian spirituality. Our time in this sacred place will include prayerful and creative retreats\, spiritual reflection and exploration of the compelling insights of these Celtic Saints. Retreat sessions include (weather permitting!) entering into the beautiful physical spaces of this island of St Aidan & St Cuthbert\, which has been called ‘a thin place’. It is a symbolic landscape and we will reflect on various symbols\, as well as being attentive to compelling pieces of art on the island. In the spirit of the monk Eadfrith\, creator of the exquisite Lindisfarne Gospels\, you’ll enter a candlelit ‘Scriptorium’; every dot\, every stroke will be a prayer… We’ll also experience different ways of praying\, including guided imaginative prayer\, in which you’ll be invited to step into your coracle with Christ and journey to the Inner Farne where the hermit St Cuthbert is living an extraordinary human life. There’ll be time in nature\, silence\, discussion\, music\, art…. We will take time out to soak in and simply ‘be’ in this ancient place of beauty. This is an opportunity to deepen faith and give time to life’s journey. And all sessions are optional\, so you can be free to move where the wind of the Holy Spirit blows… The sessions will take place on the island and mainly at the beautiful\, spacious St Cuthbert’s Centre in the village. These retreats always seem to be graced with insight\, enjoyment and spiritual depth. Holy Island is a wonderful place to retreat to! If you’re interested in attending\, do feel free to contact me\, Donna (Retreat Leader). \n

DESCRIPTION:Seasonal Quiet Garden Days\n\n\n8th April \n15th July \n14th October \n2nd December \n\n\n10am to 4pm\n\n\n“If you stand still for a few minutes in the relentless onward rush of 21st century life you might hear a quiet but insistent undercurrent. It is the cry of our hearts for space and time just to be\, to listen to the heartbeat of creation\, to let our souls catch up. Quiet gardens offer just such longed-for oases of peace. They open up once more what all our busy-ness has buried – the precious gift of heart-time and soul-space.” \nMargaret Silf – patron of The Quiet Garden Movement

SUMMARY:Online meditation with the School of Contemplative Life
DESCRIPTION:Meditation in the Christian tradition is an ancient and simple way of prayer. \nOur purpose is to teach meditation as a simple path to peace\, community and oneness. Our vision is to help people establish peace in themselves and become places of peace in the world. \nEach session includes a short talk\, a period of silent meditation practice (preceded by some basic guidelines for anyone who is new)\, and an opportunity for conversation afterwards. \nThe sessions are guided by Chris Whittington. Chris spent a period of formation at Prinknash Abbey Benedictine Monastery and is the Founder of The School of Contemplative Life. \nYou don’t need to bring anything – just yourself. Try to find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed.
