‘Women of the Well’ Weekend Retreat

The ‘Women of the Well’ Weekend Retreat

 

Inspired by Jesus’ encounter with the Woman at the Well and other women in the gospels, as well as some of our contemporaries, this retreat for women will allow time for personal, as well as group, prayer and reflection. Come and allow yourselves to be nourished and, as we move from Winter into Spring, to receive the new life which is offered us. This inspirational weekend retreat takes place on Friday 21st February  from 7.30pm to 9pm & Saturday 22 February from 9.30am to 4pm in the Prayer Centre, Knock Shrine.

The theme for the weekend is ‘If you only knew…’
