Our Garden Working Parties are a highlight of the year, bringing volunteers together to care for the grounds, plant flowers, and maintain our beautiful retreat gardens. Accommodation, meals, and all activities are provided, so volunteers can stay free of charge while making a meaningful contribution to the improvement of our Retreat Centre!
These hands-on opportunities allow volunteers to serve in a meaningful way, enjoy fellowship with others, and experience the satisfaction of contributing to a growing ministry. 🌸🌱
But gardening isn’t the only way to help. Helping Hands volunteers also contribute through:
-
Baking and preparing refreshments for guests
-
Decorating and maintaining indoor spaces
-
Welcoming visitors and supporting events
-
Sharing other unique skills to enhance our ministry
These events provide opportunities to work, pray, and socialise while making a real difference in the life of our retreat house.
