Hawkstone offers comfortable accommodation, excellent catering, and, on request, the opportunity for personal spiritual direction.
Please telephone or write to the The Secretary on Extension No: 248 office hours or 241 evenings or weekends who will be happy to discuss your requirements.
Retreats 2013
Weekend Retreat
Finding God in times of Crisis
We will explore some of the patterns underlying our experience of crisis and ask ourselves: Where is the opportunity in the crisis? Is there a blessing at the heart of the chaos? Where is there any solid ground in all this flux and volatility? And how can we work with God and the impulse of the Holy Spirit to transform the many ‘dyings’ we experience into new birth and new beginnings?
