A Retreat exploring Celtic & Indigenous Spirituality

Led by Revd Brigid Main. In the beauty and space of Pleshey take time out to explore the themes of roots, place and creation in a spiritual exploration of ‘who is Christ for us today’.

The great Irish teacher John Scotus Eriugena taught that God speaks to us through two books. One is the little book, the book of scripture, physically little. The other is the big book, the book of creation, vast as the universe....

Using ideas from Celtic, Māori and Aboriginal spirituality we will explore the two books through which God speaks to us and discover something of who Jesus Christ is for us today.

Brigid was chaplain to the chapel of St Peter-on-the-Wall and retired in 2019. She was ordained in 1999 and before that worked as a Speech and Language therapist specialising in voice work.

From 2003-2012 she was Associate at Holy Trinity Pleshey and led the training of Pastoral Assistants in the diocese, whilst her husband Laurie was House Manager at the Retreat House.

She now enjoys enabling others in their spirituality and leading retreats around nature and Celtic Spirituality. When not leading retreats she enjoys spending time in God’s creation on their narrow boat Polgara.
