VISIONS OF REDEMPTION RETREAT Led by Christopher Greener OSB & Nick Gurr 4 – 6 October 2019




Two 20th Cent American female writers and thinkers offer two distinct Catholic visions of redemption. Dorothy Day writes with a gritty journalism. Living with disability, Flannery O'Connor's fiction was inspired by faith and her roots in America's South.

The retreat will involve close-reading an discussion of texts and audio-visual material, giving a brief introduction to these writers' work.

Participants will be encouraged to explore the work in the light of their own faith.

Nick has experience... and has also organised and led many meditation retreats for people who use 12-Step programmes to overcome addiction.

Br Christopher is infirmarian at Douai Abbey and has for some years enjoyed reading Flannery O'Connor.

Cost: £145 (All rooms fully en suite)
£116 per person for those sharing.
