The Event:

In a culture which is increasingly interested in spirituality rather than religion, the church is challenged to consider how you express the Christian faith in a new post-secular context.  There are many resources in the historic contemplative tradition that resonate deeply with the great number of spiritual seekers in this the third millenium.

This study day aims to enable those who are interested in contemplative spirituality and those interested in experimental and pioneering approaches to mission to explore this more fully, drawing on the experience of a number practitioners in this field.

This event is a partnership between the London Centre for Spirituality, and the Fresh Expressions Round Table Number 5 that seeks to promote fresh expressions of church of the contemplative and sacramental traditions.
