.

I’m always happy to receive invitations for parish retreats or missions. My latest invitation is from the Catholic parish of Ponsonby / Herne Bay in Auckland.

An Invitation to begin the work and study year with a deepened appreciation of the presence and action of Jesus Christ, God-with-us, in every moment of the year ahead.

I offer these sessions, using the scriptures of the day as a starting point for encountering Jesus Christ in the reality of our lives. Each of the sessions stands alone, come to one or two or all as your time allows.

Please spread the word and I look forward to seeing you.
