Jesus himself throughout his ministry was often found in a quiet place with his Father which was an essential life-giving time. \n \nAs Christians we are easily caught up in a whirlwind of busy pursuit\, often in some form of service. But like Mary we need to sit at the feet of Jesus in unhurried attentiveness that we might gain his perspective again on how to live in this challenging world. \n \nDate and time: Friday 17th October 2025\, 10am to 12.30pm\, price £35\n \nAbout the speaker/s: \nRoz Stirling is the founder of this ministry and a retreat leader who guides these days of refection and prayer.
