PRAYER AND NATURE STUDY
One of our members, the Rev'd Nigel Cooper, is
organising three retreats which will combine
field work during the day and discussion and
prayer in the evening. There will be a daily
ecumenical Eucharist. He and a friend are
leading one on the Isle of Arran, 7th to 10th
October, 1989. Canon Charles Shells will be
leading the one at Glastonbury 29th May to 2nd
June and at Llangasty, Brecon Beacons, 19th to
26th August.
Further details are available from Nigel at The
Rectory, 40 Church Road, Rivenhall, Witham,
