(arranged by date)

Living Sanctuary (Monday - Thursday)
The Monastic Team
2012 January 23rd – 26th
2012 October 22nd – 25th
From late afternoon of the first day (Monday)
until after lunch on the last (Thursday).

These mostly silent retreats are for those who have already experienced a retreat at Worth Abbey and who wish to experience ‘living sanctuary’ for a longer period. Immersion into the pattern of the monastic prayer will be the principal aim, enabling participants to explore their own faith journey through silence, reading and prayer. There will also be an opportunity to speak with a personal prayer guide and to participate in some informal discussions.

Summer Stillness: Reflective Retreats.
Fr Patrick Fludder OSB
2012 July 16th – 19th
2012 July 23rd – 26th
Autumn Stillness:
2012 Sep 24th – 27th
From late afternoon of the first day (Monday)
until after lunch on the last (Thursday).

Jesus said to them, “Come away with me. Let us go alone to a quiet place and rest for a while.” (Mark 6:31).
Take time away with Jesus in the stillness of Worth Abbey Church, the Quiet Garden and retreat house at the best (we hope!) part of the summer and autumn months. These silent retreats will be structured around the monastic liturgy with the majority of the time for silent personal reflection, reading and prayer. These are not suitable for those coming on retreat for the first time.
