This is a Lent retreat day in which we’ll reflect on some of the ways in which we can be ‘alive to God’ in our daily lives.
‘Consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus’ (Romans 6.11)
said St Paul, and again
‘God made you alive together with Christ’ (Colossians 2.13).
Led by Andy Swinford, we’ll use scripture, creation, words and music to explore some refreshing takes on this ‘aliveness’.
There will be time set aside during the day for prayer, contemplation, and wandering in the beautiful grounds of The House of the Open Door.
Join us as we seek the Lord together.
We suggest a donation for the day of £20, including refreshments.
Please bring your own packed lunch.
To book a place, please contact us by phone or email.
Andy lives in Birmingham and is a former teacher of English.
He delivers multimedia presentations and on-line classes about the two friends C S Lewis and Tolkien, and is the author of ‘The Practice of Joy: insights from the stories of C S Lewis’ (Grove Books) and a contributor to ‘The Christian Tradition in English Literature’ (Zondervan).
Since retiring from teaching, enjoying the countryside and beekeeping are among his chief joys. He is a long-standing friend of The House of the Open Door, and has spoken before at our Friday Night Fellowship Meetings.
