Spring has begun and so has our launch at Retreat House Chester. With our news starting to circulate, we’re delighted and encouraged by the response. We’ve heard from some that it’s just what they have been looking for, and others wonder why it hasn’t happened before. Some remember the old retreat house and look forward to a new one opening, and many are drawn by the fact that it will be firmly open to all for stillness, reflection and an exploration of spirituality. We’ve had suggestions for the programme, and offers of help. Thank you!

We’re really pleased too that these conversations are happening with people from a variety of life’s places who are telling us they’re interested.

We’ve started with our information stall, and were glad to take it to – amongst other places - the Wellbeing & Diversity Fair at the University of Chester; and we have begun our monthly partnering with Chester Cathedral’s contemplative prayer evenings. Tickets are already selling for our major speaker events in April, June and September. And there’ll be news here very soon of our May conversation groups – so come back for a look!

We hope you find something you’d like to try…
