From tomorrow (Wednesday) for the next few days I will be on retreat with some good friends I used to work with in YFC. Four men on retreat is going to be a great few days.

So … until Friday I will be enjoying the benefit of the Marist Nuns in Nympsfield, from the collective wisdom of my three friends, and from the evening ale of the Rose and Crown.

Following that I will be helping to lead some of the sessions at the MSM residential at Aylesford Priory.

So … taking my new monasticism label seriously … i’m looking forward to be amongst two monastic communities over the next 5 days. That means this blog will be quiet …. there may be some reflections during the next week.
