The Retreat House by Maha Abbas

At a time of escalating violence and tension there is also an intense quest for peace worldwide. People are seeking for spiritual places and practices which have offered solace through the ages. Individuals and communities are hungering for ways, new and old, to build connections, to go beyond "them" and "us", to heal self, others and the planet. Amid the glamour and clamour for material goods all of us are longing to plumb the depths of stillness and silence. All over the universe there are signs that nature is calling us back to ourselves, calling us back home. We offer a variety of life giving spiritual practices leading to effective integration of body, mind, heart and spirit.

Our speciality is Ignatian spirituality which frees us to seek God in all things. In the process the God of surprises finds us in all things. A deep experience of personal peace empowers use to become effective artisans of peace in a world of escalating violence.

The Retreat House, a Centre for Wholeness, inspires being ‘contemplative in action’ to co-create fullness of life for all. The space provides a calm and conducive environment for silence and solitude, prayer and reflection.
It is at this time of renewal, that we want to invite all pilgrims and seekers, whatever your progress or path, to come co-create a lovely, life-giving space at The Retreat House, a home away from home.
