The journey to a ‘Trysting Place’ is not for Lent alone. In this final blog find a link to the movie of the book ‘In this House of Brede’ and also details on how to be in contact with a local Religious Commnity.

As Lent draws to a close we run the risk of going back to ‘business as normal’ and not carry all we have learnt with us. What can we do to continue to grow closer to our Beloved.

The Yiddish Proverb ‘When you make plans, God laughs’ is as true for those living the Religious Life as for those on the roller coaster of so called ‘secular life’. What plans do we make for when our plans don’t work out?
