Intentional Community Evening for South England

On Sunday November 23rd, The Kintbury Experience hosted this academic year’s first Intentional Community event for Lasallians working in ministry and administration.

It’s a chance for the Kintbury and Oxford communities to get together, alongside Kintbury past team members with friends and colleagues of the communities.

The evening started with a prayer led by St. Cassian’s director, Emma Biggins, on our preparedness for Christmas through the period of Advent. Sara then had created wooden tree ornaments for us to decorate while we celebrated our time together with the usual obligatory spread of food.

This year’s first meeting was especially important as Br. Alex Soosai FSC, from the Indian district, got to see his new home. Currently staying in the brother’s community in Oxford, he’s due to join the team and Br. Bernard in Kintbury soon.

This was the last chance for our communities in the South of England to get together before Christmas, so we’ll be celebrating the start of Lent at our next gathering in February.
