Bishop Donald’s Walk and Talk (24 Hour Retreat)
CLERGY ONLY PLEASE
Get some fresh air, enjoy the countryside around the diocesan retreat house - and take the opportunity to ask Bishop Donald any questions you'd like!
The walk will commence at 10am on the first morning. After lunch, there will be time to talk to Bishop Donald. The rest of the day is free to enjoy the Abbey.
On the next morning, for those who are interested, Chrys Tremththanmor will lead a 'thinking photographer's walk' around the Abbey. Whether you have a SLR or just a camera on your phone, she will show you how to pay attention to your surroundings and take better photos.
The retreat will finish after lunch.
If you have mobility issues, please feel free to enjoy the Abbey rather than taking the walk.
Speakers: The Rt Revd Donald Allister was installed as Bishop of Peterborough on 17 April 2010. He is committed to seeing people and churches grow in love and service to Jesus Christ. Revd Chrys Tremththanmor is Training Officer for Peterborough Diocese, and a keen photographer. Her photo website is www.stalkingthelight.com

A 9 day Pilgrimage to Israel and Palestine
Following in the Footsteps of Jesus led by The Rt Revd Donald Allister
A pilgrimage to the Holy Land is a very special experience. My testimony, shared by many who have travelled with me before, is it that the bible comes to life in remarkable ways. In addition, today’s situation in Israel and Palestine, inseparable from the very complex history, is seen and experienced quite starkly.
We will have opportunities to meet, listen and talk to ordinary people as well as community and other leaders.
The pilgrimage is open to all. However, please bear three things in mind: first, we will be worshipping as Christians each day; second, a reasonable degree of fitness is needed, as we will have to do quite a bit of walking, including up hills and steps and on uneven rocky ground; third, although we will eat well with lovely Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food, and the restaurants we use are very helpful and hospitable, it may not always be possible to meet every dietary requirement in the way you might be used to.
This won’t be a holiday, though it may well refresh those parts that holidays can’t reach. It will be stimulating, deeply moving, perhaps emotionally exhausting. You will almost certainly be changed.
I hope you can join us.
