Retreat House Chester

Retreat House Chester offers ways to peace. Rooted gently and deeply in Christian spiritual tradition, we offer a wide range of ways to retreat for all people, not in a traditional retreat house but as a part of living. Find local non-residential retreat right in the middle of Chester and in the midst of everyday life.

Summer Update

August 22, 2016 by RHC Admin

 

Even without any major events over the summer holiday, things have been moving on for Retreat House Chester.

Our 15 Appeal has launched in earnest.  Jeremy Black completed the Ride LondonSurrey 100 and - after Gift Aid - has raised a fantastic sum of about £1500.   A big thank you to Jeremy and all those who supported and sponsored him.  There is more fundraising going on through a sponsored walk - more information on our JustGiving pages.  And it's always possible to send a donation in the post - just see our 15 APPEAL page for more information.  Thank you to everyone who has helped us make a great start to this.

Our Summer Newsletter was sent out in August: if you would like to be added to the mailing list for this and other updates, please send us a message saying so and with your contact details (sending the newsletter by email helps to keep our costs down).  Please send us this message using the contact form on the website or the postal address: we'd love to stay in touch. 

We're looking forward to our third major launch event on September 17th - 'Experiencing God', on mindfulness and contemplation, and will have more details soon on our programme into 2017.  We'll also be getting a team of volunteers together, and more fundraising underway.

So lots to look forward to.  In the meantime, enjoy the late summer...

“Peace to this house;
To those who enter; To those who dwell here; To those who depart,
Peace.”
