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:Mountain pilgrimage retreat at Abernethy Kilmalieu
DESCRIPTION:What makes a mountain walk\, coastal ramble or woodland wander into a ‘pilgrimage’? The answer has to do with our intention. During this week we will seek to be conscious of the Creator’s presence and activity as we undertake our physical journeys. You will be offered ways of praying\, reflecting and engaging with nature that will transform your experience into a profound pilgrimage. The walking will be spectacular\, but the experience will be deepened by our engagement with God\, nature and one another. \nEach day there will be the option of a mountain walk (with qualified mountain leader)\, a gentler coastal or woodland wander\, or some activities in the Centre and grounds. The area around Kilmalieu is home to some dramatic hills\, including the elegant Glengalmadale Horseshoe with its ‘Corbetts’ of Creach Bheinn and Fuar Bheinn. Lower altitude options are equally spectacular\, with walks along the Morvern coastline and in the ancient oak woodlands of the Atlantic Rainforest. Participants will be invited to join morning and evening prayers in the outdoors\, using a different habitat each day.

SUMMARY:Pentecost retreat at the House of Prayer
DESCRIPTION:The Flame of Sacred Love: Exploring the gift of the Holy Spirit\n\nFri\, 15 May 202619:00  Sun\, 17 May 202615:00\nThe House of Prayer (map)\n\n\nLed by Alison MacTier  \nThe Holy Spirit is an inspiring gift to us and is central to our Christian faith – but it is also something of a mystery that can seem beyond our reach. As we approach Pentecost\, we explore what the Holy Spirit might mean for us personally as we try to make sense of how we find our place and purpose in the wider world. We will use Scripture\, prayer\, poetry\, images\, art and music to help us explore this theme. \nArrive in time for supper at 7pm on Friday and depart by 3pm on Sunday.

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.
