Healing Space

Welcome to this sacred space where we hope that you will find solace and comfort at this time in your life. What we hope to offer you most of all is a space to heal and hope.

Every few months we will add a new reflection to this area. These pieces are selected and written by Fr. Frank Downes OP, a priest of the Irish Dominican Province and presently ministering in retreat ministry, spirituality, hospital ministry and workshops, especially with healthcare personnel and those bereaved. Our kind thanks to Frank for his valuable contributions.
