5-DAY EVENT AT ALL SAINTS WOODFORD WELLS - "JOURNEY TO INTIMACY"


  • All Saints Church, Woodford Wells Inmans Row Woodford Green, England, IG8 United Kingdom (map)

This is a five-day, in person event from Monday, September 27 to Friday, October 1. Whilst it is a daytime event, participants will receive something to take away to reflect on during the evenings, should they so wish.

Timings: Monday registration 10.15, then sessions 11.00-5.30. Subsequent days 9.30-5.30. Sorry, we cannot accommodate bookings for half-day attendance.

The theme will be 'Journey to Intimacy'. God is calling us into a deeper relationship with Him, to a deeper union, and so the pattern of the week is about getting ready to leave. Whether this conjures up thoughts of leaving home as a youngster, or leaving our past behind, it is the concept of a journey towards something more. We can think of it as leaving to get married or leaving to follow Jesus on His travels. "Come with Me through the archway of trust" (Song of Songs 4 v 8, The Passion Translation)
What do we leave behind? How do we ‘leave and cleave’? How do we receive freedom from the harm of the past?
