If you're a visitor, you might be wondering 'just what IS the Northumbria Community?'. Well, it's not easy to summarise in a few sentences... but if you click the 'Who are we' link, we'll have a go!

One of the things which binds us together as a Community is our Daily Office. It's a pattern of daily prayer which helps us to bring a rhythm to our day, wherever we are and whatever we're doing. Explore it here.

The Community sells some of its resources, it's one of the ways we put 'bread on our table'. You can explore and buy these resources in our Community Resouces & Shop area.

Nether Springs, the Mother House of the Northumbria Community, is in Northumberland in the north east of England. We run retreats, and also offer private space for reflection. Have a look to see what's on at Nether Springs.
