General Info on the Summer Open Retreat @ Walsingham House

What is it?

The Summer Open Retreat is an opportunity for those who have been on retreat with a group to come again and for those who wouldn't otherwise have an opportunity to experience a retreat.

The programme blends together a mix of relaxation, fun, prayer, laughter and faith.

It is a chance to spend time with old friends and make new ones. Plus it is a great spiritual way of chilling out after exams.

Who's it for?

The Summer Open Retreat is open to anyone in years 7 – 9. You may be a committed Catholic or you may have many doubts about your faith.

Either way you're very welcome to come along and explore your inner self more deeply, in the company of friends and in an atmosphere of fun.

When is it?

The next Summer Open Retreat is taking place from:
8.00pm, Friday 9th July to 3.00pm, Sunday 11th July 2010.

What does it cost?

The cost of the weekend is £45 including meals and accomodation.

What do I need?

Yourself, your personality, energy, a willingness to take part, outdoor shoes, a jacket (and warm clothes in case it rains), and finally a Parental Consent Form.
