HOLY WEEK AND EASTER RETREAT

From 4pm Wednesday 4th – 11am Tuesday 10th April 2007

 “PASSIONATE JOURNEYS”

 with

the Holy Rood House Community 

 

Guests are welcome to all or parts of the retreat. We encourage our guests to share in as much as possible as the theme will develop as we travel together throughout the week, with opportunities to rest and relax as well as group activity.

 

Creation yearns

To become

One whole

One circle

A fragile world

Cracks open

Like the shell of an egg

From the fracture

All possibility

All creativity

Flows out

 

During the Retreat we shall be visiting the North Yorkshire Moors, enjoying creative arts, a poetry and music evening, good food and company and sharing together the Holy Week and Easter Stories through creative liturgy and storytelling.

 

Come for parts of the retreat or for the whole time.

The suggested donation for the whole retreat is £300.   

This could be payable by standing order over a period of not more than six months at say £50 per month.  If this would be more convenient for you please ask for a form.

We are a registered charity wholly supported by donations from guests, visitors, friends, financial partners, local organisations and some grant making trusts.

 

These donations make your stay here possible as without them we would not be able to continue to run the House.  In order for us to be able to offer hospitality to others we ask that you also should make a donation towards the costs of maintaining the House for the future.

 

A donation is a gift and while we do not make specific charges we suggest that your gift should, as a minimum, reflect the time that you have spent here.  We understand that giving these amounts may not   always be possible for some people and we would be happy to discuss individual cases.

 

If you are a tax payer and can sign a Gift Aid form this will greatly  enhance the value of your gift at no extra expense to yourself.  We can claim back 28p in the pound out of the tax that you have already paid.
