SUMMARY:Ignatian retreat at the House of the Resurrection\, Mirfield
DESCRIPTION:Event Details\n\nDate: October 12 – 15\, 2026\n\n\n\n\nArrive Monday 12th October from 3.00 pm.\nDepart Thursday 15th October after breakfast\n\nCost: tbc\n\nAbout the retreat\n\n500 years ago St Ignatius of Loyola launched his Jesuits upon the world. They quickly became the “shock troops” of the Catholic Church. Over the next few centuries Jesuits concentrated largely on schools and mission work.\n\nHowever\, after the Second Vatican Council they changed radically\, became concerned for social justice\, opened out to a larger world and made the Spiritual Exercises\, which had been the real dynamic of their life\, available to the world\, to priests\, religious\, lay people and non-Catholics.\n\nThe Exercises turn out to be wonderful spirituality for those living busy lives in this over busy world. It is a spirituality of the market place\, teaching us to hold on to Christ\, to God\, in the multifarious demands\, noises and distractions of our daily lives.\n\nMirfield has offered Individually Guided Retreats in the Ignatian tradition for the last twenty years.    This will be a retreat with addresses based around some of the key points of the Exercises for those who would like to know more about how it works\, and what this mysterious Ignatian dynamic is about.\nJesuits are well known for their focus on good discernment of the Will of God in daily life.    Here is how they get there.\n\nIt will be led by Fr Nicolas Stebbing CR

SUMMARY:Autumn IGR retreat at the House of the Resurrection\, Mirfield
DESCRIPTION:Our IGRs are Ignatian-style retreats. There are no addresses as in preached or themed retreats. Rather\, each person with the help of an experienced guide follows their own path as it seems God is leading them. The emphasis is on integrating body\, mind and heart in faith. \nThe pattern of the week is: \nSunday 25th October: arrive during the afternoon in time for Evensong (6.00 pm) This is followed by an informal supper with the Community and afterwards an introductory meeting with the whole group. \nMonday to Saturday: silence is kept. Each retreatant sees one of the guides each day to talk over the previous day’s prayers and gain a sense of direction for the day to come. Other set moments each day the daily Eucharist; times of silent prayer together in the evening (details will be given on the first evening if is happening); and three meals. Apart from these\, there is no other commitment.  No books that must be read\, letters written\, or chores that must be done. There is time simply to pray\, think\, mull over the words of scripture … to do nothing or to do something that helps to clear space for God.  Many people find it helpful to paint\, draw and go for walks – we pray as we are\, not overlooking our imaginations\, our bodies\, our memories\, hopes and fears. \nSaturday evening: There is usually an informal (optional) social gathering to ease out of the silence. \nSunday 1st November: Mattins\, Mass\, breakfast and depart (c. 10.00 am) \nAs you approach the week\, you might be wondering what it will be like.  Inspiring? Challenging?  Restful?  Liberating?   Life-changing?  You might find it any or all of these\, but those who have prayed in this way know without doubt that they have spent a week in God’s company. And that our God is\, as Gerard Hughes says\, a ‘God of surprises’. \nCost: £637 in a standard Retreat House room with shared bathrooms; £723.50 in an en-suite room.

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?
