Online events

Heart and Soul (online)

Heart and Soul is a contemplative spiritual gathering in which you can take time to reflect on life in the company of others. Sessions follow a regular pattern, including themed readings and music from an eclectic range of sources, time for guided prayers of gratitude, self-reflection, silent meditation, and candle-lighting to express loving-kindness and compassion. 


These gatherings are an opportunity to get to know others at a deeper level. Newcomers are always welcome. Our Minister, Jane, holds regular sessions on Zoom at 7pm every Friday and twice a month on the 1st and 3rd Sundays. RSVP by clicking the date below or email jane@kensington-unitarians.org.uk to sign up and get the link.

Better World Book Club (online)

Our 'Better World Book Club' meets monthly. The books will be chosen to cover a range of social issues we might do well to be more informed about, and stories of diverse lived experience, interleaved with books on spiritual and ethical matters, to help us live well in hard times. We will aim to choose titles that are available in print, e-book, and audiobook formats, and we will buy a few copies for the church library (let us know if you'd like to borrow one). RSVP by clicking the date below or email Jane: jane@kensington-unitarians.org.uk


In September we will be reading ‘Project Unlonely’ by Jeremy Nobel; in October it’s ‘Africa is Not a Country’ by Dipo Faloyin; November’s choice is ‘When the Dust Settles’ by Lucy Easthope; and in December we’ll consider ‘Golden: The Power of Silence in a World of Noise’ by Justin Zorn and Leigh Marz.

Mini-Retreats (online)

Our mini-retreats provide an opportunity to take some time out of everyday life and spend a quiet afternoon in gently guided personal reflection. Each mini-retreat is carefully created to prompt focused exploration of our own lives and aspects of our spiritual journey. These sessions typically last three hours, allowing time for solo reflection, and also for sharing your insights with others.

Previous mini-retreats have included ‘New Year Reflections’ in which we take stock the past year and look forward to the year ahead; ‘Stories of Our Lives’ in which we consider what we would like to record and leave behind of our life experiences and values after we’ve gone; and ‘The Spiritual Backpack’ in which we focus on qualities we might cultivate to help us thrive in challenging times.
