Spiritual Retreats & Guest Accommodation Wirral
Established in 1979, Sisters Of Jesus Way is an Evangelical Anglican community rooted in Wirral peninsula. Our founding Sisters relinquished personal securities to follow a divine calling, forming a community guided by the Gospels, Charismatic Renewal, and interdenominational saintly traditions. We operate two houses - Redacre guest house and Bethany motherhouse - offering spiritual retreats, guest accommodations, and daily prayer services.Our commitment to simplicity, fidelity, and chastity manifests through communal living, musical worship, and hospitality. With Bishop Mark Tanner as Guardian and registered under Charity Commissioners, we provide safeguarded spaces for reflection, including our tranquil garden with ponds and walking paths. Guests experience structured prayer times, spiritual direction, and opportunities to explore faith through scripture and song.
