Spiritual resources

While Thornycroft is closed and we can’t provide recollections, we will resort to virtual means of formation instead. Here are some recollections, holy hours and meditations to help you keep close to God during this time of isolation.

Recollections

For details of online recollections for secular priests please contact Fr Joe Evans on frjoe153@gmail.com

Monthly recollections for women are being held via zoom. See news for details.
Alternatively go to the DHEF website for resources so you can do it on your own at a time that suits you.

Retreats

A retreat is a time spent away from your ordinary occupation, when you can reflect on how you live your faith in your everyday work, with your family and with other people.
