URC Silence & Retreats Network
The URC Silence & Retreats Network is for interested people to help and encourage each other. It publishes Windows each Advent, Easter and Summer to share poems, meditations, information and experience.

Members also receive Retreats, the
annual journal of the inter-denominational
Retreat Association. It contains the year’s programmes from over 200 retreat houses in the British Isles and some overseas, as well as articles and book reviews about retreats and spirituality.
