Buckfast Abbey August 2011.
What started its life as a purely Portsmouth parish event turned quite naturally into a long-weekend shared by almost all of the ECCUK. In the beautiful setting of Southgate within the grounds of Buckfast Abbey, pilgrims shared worship, fellowship, and refreshment.

Easter retreat 2011, Nicholaston House on the Gower Peninsula
The weekend of Low Sunday 2011 saw the first ECC UK retreat, led by Bishop Terry on the theme of "Service - Not Self". The talks centred on the events of the Christian Passover and the example of humble service that Jesus left.
The surroundings of the Gower Coast provided plenty of reflection material, aided by wonderful weather and although the group was small the fellowship was great. there was also plenty of time for private reflections and one-to-one chats and spiritual guidance.
