Diocesan Young Adult Retreat/Pilgrimage We are organising a retreat/pilgrimage to Rome in September.

The itinerary is yet to be planned, but the time will include input, periods of silence and communal prayer, discussion, community building and a visit to Rome. A real opportunity to take some time to pray and think about God in a centre of our faith. At this point we’re hoping to assess the level of interest.
