A retreat is your chance to step aside from life for a while, to rest and just 'be' in a welcoming, peaceful place.
The Community of Tree of Life
We are delighted to be highlighting the work of the Community of the Tree of Life
- a residential new monastic community in the heart of Leicester.
Recently established by the Diocese of Leicester, the Community offers a 10-month formation programme to young adults who are seeking to deepen their relationship with God and discern God’s will for their lives.
​
The programme includes a Rule of Life and has three core elements:
​
-
Study
-
Service & Community Life
-
The Spiritual Journey
Anyone aged 18-35 from the UK and beyond can apply to join this ecumenical community which runs from September to June each year.
​
The cost of joining the Community is currently £8,500, however, most of those currently in community are supported by a bursary fund. Without this fund the inspirational work of the Tree of Life would not be possible.
Support this project
The Tree of Life is a great opportunity for young people to live in community, deepen their faith and discern their own calling. It can be a life-changing experience.
