Early Years' Retreat at Pleshey - November 2024 

Our District seeks to support ministers who are in the ‘early years’ of their ministry – to support them and enable them to grow in resilience for what can at times be a challenging calling.  As part of this every year we have a Pre-Advent retreat.  This year we were brilliantly led by Rev Dr Sheryl Anderson, who introduced us to the Advent O Antiphons through poetry and artwork.  We shared beauty, challenge and depth in our time together and went away further equipped and refreshed.
