Once again we were able to have the use of Southgate Retreat Centre for our weekend residential retreat. It is a superb place in which to stay; it has its own chapel with the Blessed Sacrament reserved, its own refectory for breakfast and supper, a comfortable sitting room, a lecture room and a garden. It is also away from all the noisy visitors.
This year, there were no visiting speakers: Fr Chris gave a talk on Jesus as the fulfilment of the sweep of Creation. There was also one of the films in Fr Robert Barron's catholicism series. On Sunday there was mass with the monks in the Abbey Church which is gleaming with all its clean new stone inside.
