This Home Retreat considers how the Christian virtues of faith, hope and love can help us to prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ at Christmas, welcoming him into our hearts.
'What gift do you want this Christmas?' by Abbot Robert
Saturday 25th December 11am
What gift would be so precious that you would never want to let go of it?
In this short reflection Abbot Robert would like to give you a gift that you will enjoy not just for Christmas but forever. A gift that you would not want to refuse.
Are you ready to receive this gift? Are you curious what it is?
Then make sure you listen to Home Retreat on Christmas Day at 11.00am. You really do not want to miss it!
Each Home Retreat consists of a 10-15 minute reflection, and concludes with a series of suggestions for activities and further reflection throughout the day. We also invite you to join us at 8:15pm to pray Compline together.
