Do you have questions about your own personal journey in faith? Is your purpose and direction in life clear? Our reflective escape in the country grounds of Oscott college might be just what you need.

During seekers@oscott, you can find peace with God, chill out, meet new people and reflect with a wide variety of extraordinary priests and religious from contrasting walks of life who have purpose, mission, inspiration and experience. The day/night retreat is taking place in the grounds of the Catholic seminary of the Archdiocese of Birmingham - Oscott College in Sutton Coldfield. It'll include a range of workshops, life-changing services, reflective music concert, candlelight rosary procession and time for quiet prayer and discernment.

The campover options?
Bringing your own tent
This is a popular option. Oscott has large rural grounds. The field contain portaloos and there is always lots of room to pitch your tent in eaither the male or female designated area. The tent area is situated right next to the main building and provides easy access to all that will be going on during the day and evening.

Staying in one of the marquees
If you don't have your own tent, there are two giant marquees in which to sleep – again, one for men and one for women. If you choose this option, we strongly recommend that you bring a roll-mat or airbed and a pair of ear plugs, as you will be sharing the tent with quite a lot of other people (although there's always enough space!).

This day is part of a series of events to round off the year for priests. There will be a week long vocations rally at Oscott College from Wednesday 30th June 2010, culminating with a closing outdoor celebration of Mass on Sunday 4th July 2010.

Each day provides a focus on vocation for different groups throughout the diocese. On Wednesday we invite primary school children. On Thursday we invite Secondary school children. On Friday we invite educators, governors, catechists and youth leaders. On Saturday we invite young adults aged between 16 and 30. On Sunday we invite all, from parishes, schools and every part of our Catholic community.
