The Centre for Christian Spirituality was established in 1986 by the then Archbishop of Cape Town and Nobel Peace Prize winner Desmond Mpilo Tutu. Under the leadership of Dr Francis Cull, who served as Archbishop Tutu’s personal spiritual director for many years, the Centre rapidly blossomed into a haven of healing for many ministers and lay people.
The Centre has gradually become more inter-denominational and inter-cultural. Currently it serves an informal community of people from all walks of life. It represents a rich variety of Christian traditions. It offers the opportunity to discover God in new ways – also to embrace His gift of life and to deepen relationships with Him through meditation and contemplative prayer.
Our vision and mission
The Centre sees its mission as “feeding the soul”. It does this by assisting individuals and groups who risk the journey inward, and so contributes to personal and social healing. The Centre believes in spirituality that is holistic.
