Spirituality
Spirituality at Wellspring is contemplative before it is busy. We sit, we keep silence, and we let Peckham's noise stay outside the door for half an hour.
Franciscan, Ignatian, and Benedictine threads show up in weekday prayer and in how we treat rooms, meals, and neighbours. See also the rhythm of life and spiritual disciplines pages.
The Wellspring Community Peckham is a diverse yet local spiritual community of people inspired to follow the example and way of Jesus in what is called a New Monastic Community, drawing on contemplative prayer practices and local loving action.
We seek to show that those who may not relate to traditional ideas of church or Christianity can find a home with us.
We recognise the inspiration of many throughout the centuries: saints, mystics, monastics and artists, seeking to offer hospitality and conversation to all.
We seek to live in a way that is both relevant to modern culture and to God, by finding God in the midst of everyday life. We welcome all to share their lives and learning with us as we continue to journey on....
The Wellspring Community is part of the Anglican Parish Church of St Lukes Camberwell in Peckham in the Diocese of Southwark in the Church of England.
