10:30am – 4pm

\u00a0

So many terrible things are happening in the world today.

\u00a0

How do we cope? Where do we look to find signs of Hope?

\u00a0

Earlier in 2025 we welcomed Fr Luis Orlando to give the Romero Lecture. People attending were moved by his descriptions of his work with the families of the disappeared in Mexico and with other marginalised groups. We are delighted that, with the financial support of the Jesuit Social Justice Fund, SPARK have been able to invite him to return to lead this day retreat.

\u00a0

\nAs well as input from Fr Luis Orlando, there will be time for discussion and private reflection. This retreat day will also include mass.

\u00a0

The day will include a light buffet lunch and tea, coffee and water will be provided.

We are using Hinsley Hall as the venue. However,\u00a0 the room that we will be using will only accommodate up to a maximum of 25 people \u2013 places on this event are very limited.\u00a0\u00a0So it is essential to book a place.<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0

\u00a0

It is a donation event \u2013 you will need to pay a minimum donation of \u00a31 on the Eventbrite page in order to book a place.
