SUMMARY:Online Lords Prayer Course at the House of Prayer
DESCRIPTION:‘Lord\, teach us to pray’\n\nTuesday 27 October 2026\n19:00  20:15\nThe House of Prayer (map)\n\n\nLed by Audrey Hamilton \nSeven week course on prayer\, beginning on Tuesday 27 October November on Zoom\, 7pm – 8.15pm \nPrayer is at the heart of any relationship with God\, and this plea from the disciples to Jesus is the universal plea of all who long to draw closer to God.  And yet God is already closer to us than we can ever imagine.  Prayer helps us realise that.  Our short course will look at different ways of praying\, with emphasis on the relationship with God that they foster rather than as techniques to be mastered. \nThemes will include the Lord’s Prayer\, that response of Jesus to the disciples’ request\, along with Lectio Divina/Sacred Reading\, Imaginative Prayer\, Praying with Art and Centering Prayer.  Sessions will consist of input on the particular theme of the evening\, with times of silence followed by a plenary session as we grow together into a praying community.  Additional material will also be offered at the end of each session should people wish to go deeper in their own prayer time during the subsequent week. \nWhether you are ‘new’ to prayer – and in a sense we all begin again each day – or have been praying for a long time and are seeking some additional inspiration\, we hope this course has something for you.  A commitment to attend all seven sessions if possible would be helpful. \nThe course will meet on Zoom on the following Tuesdays: \n\n\nTuesday 27 October\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 3 November\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 10 November\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 17 November\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 24 November\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 1 December\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 8 December\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nCost: £55

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.

SUMMARY:Pre-Advent Clergy retreat at the House of the Resurrection\, Mirfield
DESCRIPTION:Retreat Conductor: Fr Ryan Green nCR \nThe Pre-Advent Clergy retreat is a silent retreat with daily addresses.  It begins with Supper on Monday 16th November\, with arrivals  any time from 3 pm to settle in.   Evensong is at 6 pm and Supper is at 6.45 pm.  The retreat ends after breakfast on Friday 20th November. \nIn this year’s Retreat\, ‘With the Spirit and Power of Elijah\,’ we will be considering the fiery character of Elijah. We will reflect on this demanding and conflicted character in all his triumph and doubt; in the extraordinary encounters he has with the divine; and in his miraculous confrontations with life and death. What might Elijah’s prophetic witness have to say to us today as we reflect upon our own vocation and sense of call?

SUMMARY:Online Lords Prayer Course at the House of Prayer
DESCRIPTION:‘Lord\, teach us to pray’\n\nTuesday 27 October 2026\n19:00  20:15\nThe House of Prayer (map)\n\n\nLed by Audrey Hamilton \nSeven week course on prayer\, beginning on Tuesday 27 October November on Zoom\, 7pm – 8.15pm \nPrayer is at the heart of any relationship with God\, and this plea from the disciples to Jesus is the universal plea of all who long to draw closer to God.  And yet God is already closer to us than we can ever imagine.  Prayer helps us realise that.  Our short course will look at different ways of praying\, with emphasis on the relationship with God that they foster rather than as techniques to be mastered. \nThemes will include the Lord’s Prayer\, that response of Jesus to the disciples’ request\, along with Lectio Divina/Sacred Reading\, Imaginative Prayer\, Praying with Art and Centering Prayer.  Sessions will consist of input on the particular theme of the evening\, with times of silence followed by a plenary session as we grow together into a praying community.  Additional material will also be offered at the end of each session should people wish to go deeper in their own prayer time during the subsequent week. \nWhether you are ‘new’ to prayer – and in a sense we all begin again each day – or have been praying for a long time and are seeking some additional inspiration\, we hope this course has something for you.  A commitment to attend all seven sessions if possible would be helpful. \nThe course will meet on Zoom on the following Tuesdays: \n\n\nTuesday 27 October\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 3 November\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 10 November\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 17 November\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 24 November\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 1 December\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nTuesday 8 December\, 7pm – 8.15pm \n\n\nCost: £55

SUMMARY:Quiet Day at Rydal Hall
DESCRIPTION:Advent Quiet Day\n\n\n\nNovember 20\, 2026\n\n\n\n\n10:00 am\n4:00 pm\n\n\n\n\n\n£20\n\n\n\n\nThis special day during Advent will be using the O Antiphons to help us enter a time of contemplation. \nThese special verses dating back to the 6th century are normally used on the last seven days of Advent in Western Christianity and have become a key part of choral music in the days leading up to Christmas. Many of us have been introduced to them in some form in the hymn O Come O Come Emmanuel. \nUsing art\, music and poetry we will be using these scriptural verses to help us express our longing for the Christ Child and to pray for the transformation we want him to create both in ourselves and the world. \nLisa Moore Wilson\, Minister for the United Reformed Church will be leading the day. Her particular areas of interest are showing God’s love through community projects and hospitality and – helping others to find the still small voice of God in a busy world through meditation\, retreats and contemplative prayer.

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.
