A Sanctuary of Rest for the Weary

August 2025 Trinity Lakeside Abbey News

Seeking to be in Jesus a sanctuary of rest for the weary. A people and place of Christ’s presence and peace.

Breathe in

Jesus invites, “Come away with me to a quiet place and get some rest.” Join other weary souls for our Guided Day Retreat: Saturday, October 4, 9:00 am – 3:00 pm. Enjoy a restful day with Jesus, including prayer, gentle conversation and silent reflection. Each retreat features a unique written guide of meditations around scripture, art, poetry or nature. See the Retreat page for more or go to the Register page to reserve your place (space is limited).

Peace talks

Join our fall Contemplative Walking Group: Saturdays, October 18 – November 29, 8:00 am. Each week we introduce a simple contemplative practice, walk and practice that reflection, then gather back at the Abbey.

Meet our Newest Member

In May we welcomed a new member of the Abbey, a resident therapy dog in training. If you want to meet him (and train alongside him as we all are) he is with us every Sunday after worship and at various Abbey events.

Sunday mornings: a weekly mini-retreat

Join us Sunday mornings at 10:00 am for restful, renewing worship with Holy Communion, what some have described as a “weekly mini-retreat,” followed by unhurried fellowship at Trinity Lakeside Abbey.
