Vision
Statement

At
Mount St. Anne's a Retreat Centre, in the
heart of the countryside, we
welcome all people.
We
offer them time and
space to
rest and get in touch with
themselves and others, and to
experience God's love and care for them.
Our
vision and energy come from the Gospel tradition, in
particular, Mark
6:34-37
'As
Jesus stepped ashore, he saw a large crowd, and he took pity on them because
they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he set himself to teach them at
some length. By now it was getting very late, and his disciples came up to
him and said, 'This is a lonely place and it is getting very late, so send
them away and they can go to the farms and villages to buy themselves
something to eat'. He replied, 'Give them something to eat yourselves'. 

The environment here is
very suitable for prayer and reflection. Many come here tired and harassed and
in need of peace and rest. |
