Bonnevaux Retreat Programme
Our new programme features a variety of retreats – liturgical retreats to support your spiritual journey through prayer, worship, and reflection during Holy Week and Advent led by our spiritual guide Laurence Freeman OSB; a Deep Silent Retreat to join with others to go to a deeper and simpler place in solitude; retreats for those who’ve just started their personal journey with meditation and retreats to deepen your meditation practice. We will also have a special retreat for the younger meditators which will be an opportunity to reflect on and deepen our self-care so that we can better care for others.
Join us in the peaceful and beautiful surroundings of Bonnevaux for a unique retreat experience to discover the transformative power of meditation and connect with a community of like-minded meditators.

Into the Mystics Part I now available on WCCM+
What do the mystics, those who made the pursuit of the presence of God central to their lives, have to say to us today? Many of the mystics lived centuries ago in ages and circumstances so far different from ours that it is hard for us to understand their problems and their answers. Even those who lived during the past century did not experience the dizzying developments we struggle with today (no internet? no devices? no constant electronic impingement on life?) How did they live?
We are growing as a community of meditators in more than 100 countries, committed to developing a contemplative Christian life for our time and to dialogue between religion, science, business and art, body and mind. At the heart of this community is the meeting of many weekly groups, both physically and online, which introduce the essential teaching of meditation and help to deepen the inner journey. Personal transformation leads then to social and global transformation.
