We specialize in Natural Communion Experiences, i.e. working with "the intelligence of the heart, in the direct perception of nature", using many vehicles including River Floats, Vision Quests, Sweat Lodges and Natural Communion Classes. The "Power of Now" is practiced using Nature as a gateway into Now and our own true Nature of Being. We deepen our capacity for remaining in the Now through personal transformation work that is informed by the Pathwork™ of Self Transformation.
Custom retreats are Individually tailored and are very useful in supporting life transistions, spiritual emergence, and healing at the soul level. Stress Relief Retreats are another House Speciality

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
Pilgrimage - Taking you on pilgrimages to sacred sites and places of great natural beauty

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.

Praying with the Mystics Series
Make a Date with a Mystic
A Free Series and Open to the Public
Tuesdays, 7:30-9pm
January - June 2010
"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.
