Quiet Day: Daily Divine

I'm at the Diocesan House of Retreat in Pleshey tomorrow leading a Quiet Day for a group from St Nicholas Great Wakering with St Mary's Church Foulness and All Saints Barling with St Mary's Little Wakering.

During this Quiet Day, which I have called 'Daily Divine', we will be exploring our experience of God in the events and emotions of the everyday or, as the poet George Herbert put it, ‘Heaven in ordinaire’. During the day thoughts will be shared on the idea and reality of having an ongoing conversation with God in which we pray through our emotions and our everyday encounters.
