Saturday morning Soul Circle
“Going on retreat is a time to cocoon, so that we may emerge ready to return to our lives with a new perspective”.
During this monthly retreat, we will step away from the hustle and bustle of life to focus on an aspect of spirituality. Each month will offer a different topic.
Life can be hard and we need support to find our way through the challenging times. This is perfect for anyone who is longing to deepen and renew their faith as we focus on the gifts of life and joy.
