Ignatian Spirituality and Reflective worship in Hayes

Ignatian spirituality ‘taster’ session

This session is to give a taste of what will be happening in a new Ignatian spirituality group meeting on the second and fourth Thursday evenings in the month from January. The group will be meeting in Hayes or Beckenham. It will be a sharing group where time will be spent reflecting on Gospel passages and trying out exercises like the review of the day and imaginative meditation. The aim of the group is to help people explore their life and their faith in more depth. All are welcome. There is no parking at the church itself but there should be parking spaces in side-streets nearby. The nearest train station is Hayes, which is a 5-10 minute walk.
