Is being in nature a spiritual experience for you? How might the natural world inspire prayer and have an impact on how we live and work in the world?

If you love the outdoors and are curious to find God in nature alongside others, then this day workshop is for you. We will explore a combination of prayer and mindfulness in the beautiful setting of the Eden Valley. We will meet at Askham and follow a programme that will include mindfulness practice and guided prayers, times of silence and sharing with others.

Please bring a picnic lunch/drinks.
