The Lesbians Exploring Faith Together (LEFT) group are now taking
bookings for our weekend away on Friday 8th- Sunday 10th April 2011 at
Holland House in Cropthorne, Pershore, Worcestershire
http://www.hollandhouse.org/index.html

A booking form is available at http://left101.weebly.com/events.html
The weekend is a great opportunity to meet with other lesbian or bi-
sexual women in a safe space to explore aspects of our spiritual
lives, relax, have fun, and meet old and new friends in a supportive
environment.

Arrivals are from 5 p.m. on Friday evening with time to have a look
around, find your room, have a cuppa and chat with others. Dinner at 7
p.m.

After dinner there is an introductory session to meet the other guests
and this will be led by the LEFT planning group.

Saturday will have two morning workshops, free time in the afternoon
with the option of a walk, and an early evening session before dinner.
These will be led by Sharon Ferguson who is chief executive of the
Lesbian and Gay Christian Movement, a Minister of a Metropolitian
community Church congregation in London, and an excellent facilitator.

There will be opportuntites to listen to some input, and have thinking
time, time to discuss, create and respond thoroughout the weekend.

The theme is likely to be around 'new beginnings' and this should be
confirmed very soon.

Have a look on the LGCM website - as there are video clips of some of
Sharon's media appearances. http://www.lgcm.org.uk/

There will be a party in the evening and we invite those who would
like to join in the entertainment to play a musical instrument, sing a
song, read a poem, tell a joke, do a magic trick. take part in a
sketch - or whatever.

On Sunday there will be a session to plan a liturgy together and this
will be co-ordinated by the LEFT planning group.

The venue - Holland House is in Cropthorne near Pershore
Worcestershire (trains to Evesham) and is a tudor style house with
lovely gardens and is a very welcoming and relaxing place to be. You
can choose a single or twin room and all of our meals and refreshments
are included in the weekend and can be highly recommended.

The cost for the whole weekend including all meals and two nights
accommodation is £145.

To assist us in planning the weekend we ask that payment is included
with the booking form (cheques payable to 'LEFT') which needs to be in
by 11th March at the latest.

There are a limited number of concessionary places if you are unwaged
