5th Gospel Retreats prepares itineraries for parishes and groups, facilitating a pilgrimage of reflective encounter with the Holy Land.

We are inspired by the Benedictine charism of prayer and hospitality - and appreciate good food and wine. We try not to rush around. Each day we have Morning and Evening Prayer, Mass, reflective reading/praying of scriptures at the Holy Sites and sharing hospitality with the people we meet. We stay in superb pilgrim houses owned and run by the Church and use licensed Christian guides and transport companies. Our groups are small - between 10 and 25 people and although we ourselves are from the Roman Catholic tradition, our groups are nearly always ecumenical.

We plan to be leading Benedictine Pilgrimages with Worth Abbey in 2013 to include Jordan
