Silent retreats led by members of the Plymouth Diocesan Ignatian Spirituality Team take place each year at various venues. The retreats are in the Ignatian tradition and they are open to Christians of any denomination who would like to step back from everyday life, review their journey in faith and be strengthened in their vocation as disciples of the Lord.
An Individually Guided Retreat offers each person the opportunity for space, silence and prayer. Each retreatant will meet a Spiritual Companion daily and together they will discuss how best to use the time of the retreat. The Companion will help the retreatant to pray using scripture and the person's own experience of life, and together try to discern what God is saying to the retreatant at this time. The retreat is made in silence to help each person to pray and to give each of them equal opportunity for reflection.
