The heart of the retreat house at Merville is the beautiful chapel. There is also a small chapel on the first floor: a space for silence and contemplation. There is also a cloister and ample grounds in which to walk. Merville town centre is only a 10-15 minute walk away.
With Revd Dr Kate Coleman we reflected on approaches to maintaining well being in leadership, while Malcolm Guite used poetry to explore refreshment of the spirit and God’s abundance. The evening entertainment was provided by Revd Sam McNally-Cross, Vicar of St Thomas, Kensal Town, who shared skills from his former occupation as a magician.
