Thinking Faith: a study week and holiday for Catholics in their 20s-40s on the theme of Catholic Social Teaching
What is Thinking Faith?
It began in 2005. It is led by a group of Catholic friends, Augustinian and Dominican, religious and lay, with a wide range of personal and professional interests and experience.
Our aim is to share with our guests for the Thinking Faith week a rich experience of community life, based on shared prayer, hospitality and friendship, and the chance to think seriously about our faith in the company of like-minded people.
We will also be joined by members of the community at Boarbank, whose warm hospitality makes Thinking Faith possible.

Where will it be?
Boarbank Hall is situated near Grange-over-Sands in southern Cumbria, on the edge of the Lake District, with a fine view over Morecambe Bay. Since 1921 it has housed an Augustinian convent. The sisters share a common life based on the Rule of St Augustine, with a focus on hospitality, and on care for the poor and sick.
The group will occupy the convent’s very comfortable guest house, and have full access to the attractive gardens, which include a tennis court. The convent’s spacious chapel will be available for the use of the group. We will also share in some of the community’s prayer.
There are railway stations at Cark & Cartmel and Grange-over-Sands with direct links to Manchester and Preston.
