A day on the life and work of John Chapman, Abbot of Downside who died in 1933. His Spiritual Letters show him to be a forerunner of the rediscovery of the contemplative way associated with Thomas Merton, John Main & Thomas Keating. He is the author of the well known saying, Pray as you can, not as you can't.

There will be times of meditation in the day and time for questions/comments.

Fr. Robin is a Catholic priest of Westminster Diocese living in the parish of Ealing Abbey, where John Main began his first meditation group. He is Clergy Co-ordinator for WCCM.
