Overall theme for 2026: “THE GREATEST GIFT IS LOVE” The transformative power of God's love
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." (1 Cor 13:13)
“He who is filled with love is filled with God Himself.” – St. Augustine
In 2026 we explore the foundational truths of our faith, and how they reveal the amazing and powerful love of God.
With the help of the Holy Spirit, we will be enabled to deepen our own understanding and appreciation of the Good News
and will also be inspired and equipped to share it with others.

You are very welcome to join us on Zoom. See MEETING THIS MONTH panel for details of the next meeting and scroll down to JOINING DETAILS panel for how to register and participate.
Rosary: we would normally start our meeting with the Rosary, but this is not part of the Zoom conference. You can choose to watch an online Rosary for example Rosary Joyful Mysteries from Lourdes (30 minutes); or say your own, using our ADoRE "Rosary with Scriptures" Link HERE
Mass and Adoration: livestreamed on Zoom from 10.00am after a short introduction. Please join from 9.50 and stay muted. More information on Adoration HERE
Reflection and prophecy: after Adoration, participants may offer words that they feel the Lord is giving them. Please press the "Reactions" button to raise a hand and wait till we ask you to unmute your microphone and invite you to speak. More information about Prophecy HERE
Praise and Worship: After a 10 minute comfort break, at 11.20am there will be a fuller welcome and introduction and a time of sung praise and worship. Song words will be shown on screen so you can join in at home, though your microphone should still be muted. (The time delay online makes it tricky to sing in unison).
Testimony: at 11.45am there will be a short testimony from someone about their own experience of renewal in the Spirit.
Talk: at 11.50 we have an inspiring talk from our guest speaker for the month. (See THIS MONTH panel for details.) This will conclude with a time of prayer for renewed outpouring of the gifts of the Holy Spirit on all participants.
Sharing: At aroud 12.30, we will usually have a Question & Answer session with the speaker, before further prayer and final announcements. The meeting finishes at around 1.00pm.
Prayer Ministry: We offer the opportunity for you to receive prayer for healing or spiritual renewal of your faith by telephone in the afternoon. Details HERE
Watch again: Most months we record the Mass & Adoration, Praise & Worship, Talk & Testimony so that you can remind yourself of the retreat, or catch up if you missed it. Go to our YouTube channel HERE

THEME: "JESUS: NO GREATER LOVE"
There is no greater love than that of Jesus who laid down His life for us.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in Him
should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
How do we relate to Jesus? Do we have a ‘personal relationship’ with Him through an active prayer life? Is Jesus 'Good News' to us? How would we describe the Jesus we know to others?
Please join us for a mini-retreat of spiritual renewal on Zoom. Through our programme of Mass, Adoration, Prophecy, Praise, Testimony and inspiring Talk, we will develop in our role as ambassadors for Christ, sharing his love and calling others to reconciliation with God and joy in the blessings and gifts of the Holy Spirit for revitalising the Church.
There is no charge for attendance, but you are invited to make a donation to help cover our costs.
