Individually Guided Retreat in the Ignatian Tradition

The Sisters of the Monastery of Our Lady of Hyning, Lancashire are hosting an IGR with guest directors in April 2026 and would love to welcome members of religious congregations

The Monastery of Our Lady of Hyning invites guests to take time apart from the busyness of daily life for an Individually Guided Retreat in the Ignatian tradition, running from Friday 24th April to Sunday 3rd May 2026 (8 days) or Saturday 25th April to Saturday 2nd May 2026 (6 days).

These retreats offer the opportunity for a personal encounter and deepening relationship with God, supported by daily meetings with an experienced spiritual director trained in the Ignatian tradition. The week will be spent in silence, prayer, and reflection on Scripture, with the option to join the Bernardine Cistercian Sisters for Mass and the Divine Office.

  • Ginny Newsham, Ignatian spiritual director based in South Cumbria

  • Donna Worthington, experienced retreat giver and regular retreat leader at Hyning

Accommodation is in comfortable single en-suite rooms, with access to lounges, a library, an art studio, and tranquil gardens set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty near Carnforth.
