What do you love about autumn? This retreat is for those who love to embrace each season of the year by being active in the truly great outdoors and finding God in the natural world! This retreat invites you to make the most of the daylight hours enjoying the beauty and richness of creation in your chosen activity, walking, cycling, swimming or whatever you love to do. We will meet online after the sun has gone down and share our experience of where we found God today.

Sunday Evening 6-7pm BST
