Experience a day retreat inspired by Dr Martin Luther King Jr.'s vision of the Beloved Community. We will explore his ideas through archive footage, music, and texts, daring to dream of a more just, reconciled and peaceful world. 

Through discussions and reflections, we’ll explore Dr King’s principles and how they relate to our lives today. This retreat encourages us to see how his vision can inspire us to act for justice, peace, and unity. 

The day will be enriched by live music from members of the Royal Foundation of St Katharines 'choir in residence' The Spirituals, offering a soulful backdrop to our reflections and conversations. 

Revd Shana Maloney is Priest-in-Charge at St James the Great, Clapton, and a member of the Stepney Racial Justice Team. As a passionate advocate for justice and belonging, she frequently preaches and lectures in the UK and the Caribbean on becoming the Beloved Community and living the spirit of Ubuntu, emphasising its relevance within parish ministry. 

This is a joint day with The Royal Foundation of St Katharine and St Paul’s Cathedral. It will be held at The Royal Foundation of St Katharine in Limehouse.
