Reflect is the spirituality and retreats network of the Methodist Church in Britain www.reflectretreats.co.uk It hosts a Pilgrimage to Coventry on 18 November. Parcevall Hall itself has an interesting Friends' Newsletter, which includes notes, prayers, and reflections, including this quotation from Henri Nouwen:
' Hospitality means primarily the creation of a free space where the stranger can enter and become a friend instead of an enemy... Hospitality is not a subtle invitation o adopt the lifestyle of the host, but the gift of a chance for the guest to find his or her own.'
