Retreat - at Coleg Trefeca 18th to 20th February, 2011

Our weekend retreat at Coleg Trefeca in the beautiful and serene surroundings of the Brecon Beacons National Park starts tomorrow, Friday 18th, February.

As you may know we had to postpone the last weekend in December 2010 as a result of the bad weather. It was heartening to witness – that even amidst the travel chaos that ensued, with many older people and those not well finding it almost impossible to go about their daily business - how kind and considerate people could be: helping clear paths and taking food and drinks to those who were housebound. It was lovely to witness tragedy and trouble bringing out the best in people!

We are looking forward to spending quality time with like minded people – those in recovery, or family members and friends of those in recovery - and getting away from the often painful and bewildering, hustle and bustle of life. We believe there seems little difference in the pain that we all can suffer. In having these weekend retreats we believe that change is possible and life can be worth living.

Throughout the year we host weekends, long weekends and week long retreats that are designed to delight your mind, body and soul. Time spent with us leads to fabulous positive changes and we have enjoyed hearing about all the wonderful life changing experiences that our attendees achieve! It our prayer this weekend will be a significant and healing one for you.

We appreciate that, if this is your first time at a weekend like this, you may be anxious and perhaps have fears. We understand this and will do all we can to provide a safe and comfortable environment for you. Our goal is to create an all inclusive, affirming, non judgmental community at this weekend – a community where all are welcome to explore recovery, faith, hope, healing, doubts and fears in order to better understanding unconditional love and to have a spiritual experience as a result of working and practicing the 12 steps of recovery.

If you have any queries or wish to discuss any aspects of the weekend please contact WYNFORD ELLIS OWEN on 07796464045.
