  • Seasons of Love: A retreat for gay and bisexual men

    As I indicated in this blog a few weeks ago, I’m going to be co-leading a retreat for gay and bisexual men in March.

    Anyone who wants to know more can find details on the retreat website at www.retreat.maniple.co.uk

    Pilgrimage/Retreating/Spirituality stuff seems very much to be on the rise and this is just one of the things that I’m planning to do in this area over the next period of time. In my head, I’m also planning a city-based pilgrimage but details of that will have to wait for a bit.

    Anyone with any questions about this retreat, do get in touch. This one happens to be for men only – again, I suspect that I’ll find myself running a mixed retreat for LGBT folk sometime too.

    Bookings are now open for this one and places are limited.

      Is offered to sustain thinking regarding the environment. As an organization we need assurance that this issue is being taken seriously and with intent throughout the church. Need to decide locally how best to proceed in this area.

        He appears now to be talking about a second amendment which we cannot see. Chair has not yet taken a vote on the first amendment. (Fear confusion ahead)
