Retreats
'Deacons should make a retreat at least every other year'
(see Directory for the Life and Ministry of Permanent Deacons 70).
To assist with this important aspect of our spiritual formation,
the Permanent Diaconate Team organises two retreats each year:
one for deacons only at The Friars, Aylesford
the other for deacons and wives at
the Maison Diocesaine d'Accueil, Merville, France.
