A retreat for anyone seeking renewal in their spiritual life, focussing on how prayer nourishes our roots – essential if we hope to bear ‘fruit that will last’ (John 15:16). We will consider what it is to delight afresh in prayer; how the
Spirit helps us when we struggle; and the crucial role of prayer in spiritual renewal. The retreat is run in partnership with ReSource. Our time together will include a variety of sung worship and prayer, Biblical teaching, space for personal reflection, and opportunities to welcome the ministry of the Holy Spirit. www.resourcingrenewal.org
