“Know that even when you are in the kitchen, Our Lord is moving among the pots and pans.”

“You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid.” Matt. 5:14

We shall try to understand what is really going on at Mass, what our part is in that and what it means for how we interact with the world and the people around us.

If you enjoy walking and want to practice Christian meditation/contemplation, this weekend is for you!

We aspire to live as people of hope. 

During this week we will be inviting each other to go on a dig to unearth and share treasures of scripture, stories, perennial wisdom, film, music, art and life experiences which have impacted, transformed, affected or even just slightly shifted the lens so as to influence and modify how we see.

Growing old often brings with it challenges of failing health, memory and mobility. But it can also bring many blessings – wisdom, patience, freedom and time.

Walking in nature, alone or with others, is a physical activity with intrinsic spiritual depth. Our Eastertide walks in North Yorkshire (God’s Own County, some say) will encompass the ancient abbeys of Rievaulx, Byland and Whitby.

After a fantastic weekend last year we're just testing plans for this coming year... 2023

“I have come so that you may have life, and have it to the full” (John 10: 10). This pandemic year has propelled thinking about positive mental health and wellbeing to the forefront for the majority of the population. But what does this concept mean when applied to our faith and spiritual life?

Walking, or pilgrimage is an important spiritual exercise in all faith traditions. Jesus himself walked a lot! We deepen our spiritual journey while connecting with special places and with God’s creation.

James Teague and team will be leading a Helper Training Weekend on the 25-27th March 2022, near Hathersage, Sheffield.

In today’s intolerant world, we Christians often pride ourselves on how unprejudiced and welcoming we are. We claim to celebrate diversity. We decide that we are all the same underneath, and get on with it. But how often do we truly try to understand the “other”?

We have booked Kintbury for a camping reunion week in August 2021 (restrictions permitting). Please note that this will not be a week with structured content. The week is a chance for members and families to get together in the beautiful surroundings of Kintbury. No doubt spontaneous prayer, music and singing will take place!

“I have come so that you may have life, and have it to the full” (John 10: 10). This pandemic year has propelled thinking about positive mental health and wellbeing to the forefront for the majority of the population. But what does this concept mean when applied to our faith and spiritual life? Using the model “Five Ways to Wellbeing” (New Economics Foundation, 2008) as our framework, we shall be thinking about wellbeing and faith. As we start to leave “lockdown” we will hopefully find some strategies to help us start to “live life to full” once again.

What does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God (Micah 6:8). During this week we will be considering the implications of Micah’s prophetic call, looking at Biblical and some modern prophets who walked or marched as witness to their calling.

What does it mean to have a prophetic task, and who were, and are, our prophets? What effect might it have if we really listen to the prophets’ messages of the past? In CPW’s year on prophecy, we hope this virtual weekend will give us the opportunity to open our unseeing eyes and unhearing ears to our own prophetic tasks.

This summer you can enjoy the CPW experience from the comfort of your own home. Our very first Virtual Summer Week will run from Saturday 8th August until Saturday 15th August. The event is free to attend and all our welcome. A full agenda is available here. We do hope you can join us.
