A Quiet Day for Lent 2026
Saturday 7th March, 10.30am-4pm, St Columba’s by the Castle, Johnston Terrace, Edinburgh
Cost £35 (£25 concession, or pay what you can) includes lunch, coffee & cake
A cup of cold water on a hot day. A frank conversation which bridged a profound distance. A promise of refreshment, sustenance, a cup which overflows. This retreat day is an invitation to pause by the well where Jesus met the Samaritan woman, and to consider the deep places from which we draw refreshment in a busy, demanding world. It’s a place to think about what it means to thirst, about the ancient Celtic tradition which links wells with healing, and what it means to encounter the One who sees us as we really are.
The day will draw on a mix of reflective approaches and creative material including art, poetry, Scripture, music and writing. It will included guided reflections, individual quiet time and the chance to reflect using craft materials. A buffet lunch is provided, as is coffee and cake (please advise of any dietary issues on the booking form). Early booking is appreciated for planning purposes. Please book on this page, or email info@heartinpilgrimage.org.uk. There is a pay-what-you-can option available for anyone who might find that useful, please just drop me a line.
This Lent Retreat Day is also being presented in an online version on Saturday 28th February, for more info visit this page.
