The final day of our Lent retreat and as always this was our time to celebrate all that we had done together over the weekend. Each group spent the morning preparing their own contributions to our final mass and it was great to see the way in which different groups presented their individual parts to the rest of us through drama, poetry and music to name a few.
There was of course still time to enjoy a wonderful Ampleforth Sunday lunch and pose for our final group photograph outside of Alban Roe before we departed back to Hartlepool. It's safe to say that this was a very special retreat and a massive thank you goes to the young people, teachers and people of the parishes who took part in Ampleforth 2012.
