Pause in His presence
Hundreds of thousands of people use the Lectio 365 app every day. The app invites users to follow a daily pattern of drawing close to God. Users are guided through the Bible, praying as they meditate on God’s Word. Lectio 365 helps people to draw close to Jesus and hear from Him.
‘When you pause in His presence, you create space for peace in a busy and complicated world.’ - 24-7 Prayer
Waverley Abbey has been hosting Lectio 365 retreat days, in partnership with 24-7 Prayer. Creating space for peace in people’s busy everyday lives to reconnect with Jesus.
Led by the 24-7 Prayer team, and Lectio 365 app contributors, Waverley Abbey hosts participants in a day of teaching, reflection and prayer. And we’re inviting you to join us on the next retreat days in Spring 2025.
Testimonies from Lectio 365 retreats…
“It’s been such a precious time meeting with other people. Also to have carved out special time to sit in the winter sun with Jesus and hear Him speak to us. We’ve been blessed by just being in this beautiful place.”
“My favourite thing about the retreat has been being led in silence. So being able to share that with other people but also have time to meet with Jesus. It’s been a really precious time.”
“This is my first time at Waverley Abbey - it’s been absolutely great. The hospitality is just second to none. The grounds are beautiful. It’s just so nice to come into a place that’s so steeped in prayer.”
“God has spoken to me powerfully today and I would highly recommend the retreat to anyone who is thinking of coming along.”
Join us on a Lectio 365 retreat or 24-7 Prayer event
Waverley Abbey is next hosting two Lent Lectio 365 retreats on March 28 and 29, 2025.
The day-long retreat Praying the Psalms gives participants the opportunity to learn from, and be inspired to pray by, the Psalms.
The Psalms have accompanied the people of God for centuries. We will create space to listen to the prayers of the Psalmist to hear God’s word for us. Spending time to deepen the intimacy of our prayer lives.
In collaboration with 24-7 Prayer, Waverley Abbey is also hosting a retreat, based on The God Story, written by Alain Emerson on 22 March 2025.

PRAY WITH US
Father God,
We thank You for the gift of quiet time in Your presence through the Lectio 365 app and retreats. We pray that as we pause in Your presence, we would experience deep peace and draw closer to You. Bless the retreat days at Waverley Abbey, that all who attend may be renewed in their spirits, hear Your voice, and deepen their prayer lives.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
