Our popular Home Retreats continue as the community provide reflective and insightful discussions every Saturday at 11.00.
Home Retreats can be watched on our YouTube channel or listened to on our podcast.
See below which monks are taking part this month and what topics will be explored:
February
'The Life of St Benedict' by Fr Chad
Saturday 3rd February
What can we learn from the account of Saint Benedict's life by Gregory the Great? This talk will look at his leaving Rome, his time as a hermit, his different monasteries at Subiaco and Monte Cassino and his death.
‘Three Foundational Illusions’ by Fr Christopher
Saturday 10th February
It seems to me that meditation, as John Main taught it, overcomes three foundational illusions that make it almost inevitable that your politics is going to change, your economics is going to be called into question, your socio-economic perspective by which you critique the world will be pretty quickly taken away from you.
'Lent' by Fr Bede
Saturday 17th February
Lent ..”your heart is greater than your wounds..”
..a time & a season for pointing the finger?
or silently fingering a word in the sand?
'Lenten Hope' by Fr Wulstan
Saturday 24th February
This Home Retreat explores how Lent can help us to overcome our inner dividedness and strengthen our hope in God.
