Retreats

Draw aside from the noise and busyness of your daily life and experience some quiet to listen to God. We offer a silent space for individuals to make a retreat, whether for a Quiet Day or longer residential retreat, and to meet with a spiritual director. We also welcome groups for day retreats, meetings and residential stays.

Programme

We offer a diverse programme of retreats and days throughout the year. Our regular Individually Guided Retreats offer a silent space for prayer with daily meetings with a retreat guide. We also offer retreats and days on a variety of themes exploring Christian spirituality and prayer.

The Christian Retreat

Inspired by Fr Anthony Receveur (1750-1804), the founder of the Sisters of the Christian Retreat, the House of Prayer was established in March 1993. Today, the House of Prayer is led by a community of staff, volunteers, and friends, who carry out the spirit and vision of the Christian Retreat through their work and ministry.
