Food for the Journey

Led by Ven Kate Peacock. Join us for a day thinking about how we are spiritually fed; how our needs may change and adapt over time and what a healthy spiritual diet may look like. We will explore together some scripture looking at nourishment and journey, and our time together will end with the Eucharist. Interspersed will be times of quiet and personal reflection. Please bring your appetite for God and enjoy the hospitality of the retreat house.

Kate was ordained in 2003 and served her curacy in Cambridge then as Associate Vicar of the Three Rivers Benefice, both in the Diocese of Ely. She served as Rector of Hormead with Wyddial, Anstey, Brent Pelham and Meesden, in the Diocese of St. Albans from 2012 to 2018 and as Rural Dean of Buntingford from 2016 to 2018 and Dean of Women’s Ministry for St. Alban’s Diocese from 2017 to 2018. In 2018 Kate became Church Growth Officer for St. Alban’s Diocese and, in 2021, became Deputy Director of Mission and Ministry.
