“the full extent” of His love for His Father and for us, His disciples. That in like manner we
may know Him more intimately, love Him more dearly and follow Him more closely.
Retreat will have days of teaching, followed by daily Chapels & Communion and one to
one session. Cost is dependent on the number of participants in order to make it

Movie Retreat @ 7 Fountains, Chiangmai, Thailand
14-20 June 2025
Using selected movies of different genre alongside biblical Scriptures to enhance praying
with our senses. Thomas Merton once said this, “Art enables us to find ourselves and lose
ourselves at the same time. Art is not an end in itself. It introduces the soul into a higher
spiritual order, which it expresses and, in some sense, explains.”
Echoing Jesus, may I invite you to also “Come and see” and meet God in the dark for
yourself?

Advent Retreat @ 7 Fountains, Chiangmai, Thailand

Advent the season of remembering how Jesus still comes in the midst of dire and dreary
political, social, economic, mental and spiritual duress. Nothing can keep God from
entering into humanity in flesh and blood. Today God still come in solidarity with our
humanity and reality, steeped and hidden in the midst of life. We need only to stop, pause,
and see Him who is Immanuel, God WITH us.

Crossover XII Retreat @ 7 Fountains, Chiangmai, Thailand
28 December – 6 January 2026
Another popular year-end retreat where retreatants review the year past for God’s
footprints and preview the year dawning as wisely advised by Søren Kierkegaard, “Life can
only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.” Retreat’s highlight is the
Watchnight Service where standing at the darkest moment at midnight the Light of the
World is heard through the Word and the breaking of Bread as we give thanks for the year
past and welcome the New Year!
During days of silence, daily Chapels & Communion with one to one accompaniment will be offered.
Please email via website for registration form from 1 Feb 2025.

aside to stop, pause, ponder through Scripture and materials or hand-outs related to the
theme of each Quiet Day. It is a time to relook at one’s relationship with God as well as a
time to rest and be refreshed. Time for silence and solitude is interspersed throughout the
day with a lunch break.
