Roslyn still occupies the same land and has grown in size to sixteen buildings and now hosts over 400 conference and retreat groups each year. Roslyn's natural beauty, peaceful atmosphere, and hospitality continue to reflect the faithful and generous spirit of its original steward and benefactress, Annie Rose Walker.

Many people sense that they want and “are” something more than the busyness of each day. They sense a need to step away from the pace of life and nurture their soul.
To nurture one’s soul is to become more aware of God and to respond to that awareness with mindfulness and attention. It is opening oneself to His love and peace, and finding rest. Wisdom says time “away” is needed. Jesus emphasized this need when He said to His disciples, “Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while.”
Canterbury Retreat House provides a space for you to step away, to slow down, and to reacquaint yourself with God’s voice and heart.

Welcome to the Peace, Pilgrimage and Reunion website. May God bless you and yours as you continue the quest for a deeper relationship with God our Father in Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Peace, Pilgrimage and Reunion Services was founded to offer help and resources for people seeking a deeper relationship with God in Jesus Christ. Each component of the ministry is designed to accompany and assist those who desire to come aside from the business of their daily lives to “draw nigh unto God”. Through retreats, Bible studies, pilgrimages, spiritual direction, prayer, and other spiritual disciplines, we trust that the Lord will guide and lead us to aid and enrich each person’s journey with the Lord. Dedicated to serve God by serving others in God’s love by the power of the Holy Spirit in Christ Jesus, we trust that with God’s help we can be of some service to all who seek the Lord and feel led to join us.
We offer three services. Click below to see out current events.
Peace - Helping you find personal peace through retreats, counseling, prayer ministry and spiritual direction

The Headless Way offers you a practical, user-friendly way to see Who you really are. This method was developed by the philosopher Douglas Harding. At the heart of this approach are the Experiments - awareness exercises that guide your attention directly to your deepest identity. Visit our web site for more information.
|
|
Seeing Who You Really Are
Who are you really? Richard Lang will guide you through experiments invented by the philosopher Douglas Harding. These experiments test an amazing claim about you - at centre you are absolutely different from what you appear to be from a distance. From several metres you are human, but at centre you are not – you are Awake No-thing that is capacity for everything. Put in more traditional language, in appearance you are human but in reality you are divine. Your True Identity is God, Buddha-Nature, the One Self – choose your name! Richard will not ask you to believe this – he will invite you actually to look into your centre for yourself to see if this claim about you is true. And he will show you how to look into your centre so that you can, during this workshop, see your True Nature. This discovery can change your life. When you see Who you really are, you become one with the Source of all things. What greater discovery is there than this?
 Richard Lang first discovered Who he really is when he attended a workshop with Douglas Harding in 1970. Since then he has devoted his life both to staying awake to his True Nature and to sharing Harding’s experiments that make so available this profoundest of discoveries. He has two books published - Seeing Who You Really Are and Open To The Source. He has written and compiled the content for the website www.headless.org He lives in London, co-ordinating the Shollond Trust – the UK charity set up to share this work. He also works as a psychotherapist, and teaches Tai Chi and Five Rhythms Dance.

January-December 2009
Make a Date with a Mystic
A Free Series and Open to the Public
Tuesdays, 7:30-9:00 PM
"When I think of mystics, I think of ordinary people living out an incredibly intimate experience of relationship with God— gifted, too, with wisdom, grace and spiritual communion. And I wonder what the message is for me in my life today."
Please join us Tuesday evenings as we immerse ourselves in the stories of fourteen ordinary men and women who led extraordinary, God-gifted lives. Learn what they have to teach us today and how their lives can still inspire and influence us.
Each evening will include an introduction to the mystic, prayer, and small group sharing. No registration necessary. Free will offerings gratefully accepted.

Dates: June 27, 2009
Time: 9am – 4:30pm
LIVING LIFE FULLY AS A SPIRITUAL MAN IN TODAY’S WORLD
In our Western culture, and even in our religious traditions, we as men have few guides to lead us deeply into the full male journey. There are almost no mentors who have been there themselves and returned to guide us through. Yet in today’s economic, ecological, and cultural crises, our society cannot successfully transition if men do not develop a healthy male spirituality, learn how to integrate both masculine and feminine principles into their lives, and have this new perspective be accepted by the culture.
In this experiential and discussion-based workshop, we will work with Richard Rohr’s book, From Wild Men to Wise Men, and portions of Susan Trout’s new book, The Clarion Call: Leadership and Group Life in the Aquarian Era, to understand and reclaim the spiritual initiation of men, and to understand and practice the synthesis of healthy masculine and feminine energies.
Cost: $120 ($105 if registered and full payment received by June 17)
