ABC FIRE-breaks

Rekindling your spiritual FIRE through Retreat.

Fellowship · Insight · Renewal · Exploration

ABC FIRE-breaks are either single day or Saturday morning Retreats that offer you an opportunity to take a break from the hurry, distraction and ‘burning’ issues of daily life in order to allow God to rekindle your spiritual FIRE through Fellowship, Insight, Renewal or Exploration, either individually or as a group. Our FIRE-break retreats are based in Little Chalfont, Bucks, HP8. See the Calendar below to book your place or check availability or please contact us if you have any other questions.
