Description
Theme: ‘Let it Go”’, Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” 1 Peter 5:7
Monday 8th March 2027
When we enter the creative process, we make space to slow down, become still and connect with God. Through prayer, reflection and creativity, we can begin to lay down some of the things we are carrying and receive God’s peace, love, hope and joy.
Kay Mason, founder and pioneer of Create Church and Create Art Ministry, offers this retreat as a time to step away from the busyness of everyday life and simply be with God.
Our theme, ‘Let It Go’, is based on 1 Peter 5:7. Through Christian mindfulness, gentle relaxation, prayer and creativity, we will explore what it means to give our worries and burdens to God and trust in his care for us.
There will be a variety of art materials to explore and enjoy. On your first Create session, you will receive your own scrapbook to use during the day, take home and bring back to future sessions as a creative journal of your journey with God.
This isn’t about producing a perfect piece of art. It’s about the process — slowing down, listening to God and enjoying his presence. You don’t need to consider yourself artistic or creative; I will guide and encourage you throughout the day.
After lunch, you can continue creating, enjoy the beautiful gardens at Holland House, or simply rest and be.
Come as you are, put down what you have been carrying for a while, and give yourself permission to receive.
All are welcome, whatever your age or creative ability.
10am–4pm, in a small group, including a two-course lunch and refreshments.
