......and to a new year of growth
here at the Benedictine Centre for Spirituality.
In addition to the five residential rooms in the Centre,
if you have visited us for residential retreat, you
may have stayed in the monastery guest house: This
house has now opened as a retreat centre within the
World Community for Christian Meditation. Dom
Laurence is its Director, a member of our
monastic community, who many of your know through
the meditation days he has led over the years at the
BCS.
This promises a new enrichment of the spiritual life
of our community here and of its guests and visitors.
It enhances the contemplative focus as well as providing
the opportunity to participate in the daily silent
meditation sessions of the new Meditation Centre.
Although each centre will keep its own vision and
programme of events, we will be liasing on schedules
and resources between the two centres.
We pray that together we will encourage the growth
and vitality of Benedictine life in Cockfosters.
