Thresholds of Transformation for Seekers & Searchers
Are you seeking and searching for:
- Meaningful reflection and conversation amidst a world, church and planet in crisis, that empowers your contribution to a better world?
- Personal and relational insights for a more purposeful life and skills to navigate the times
we are living in? - A deeper relationship and sense of belonging with God, others, all creation?
- An opportunity to explore and deepen your spirituality and be enriched by creative ritual
and prayer?
If yes, then join Thresholds of Transformation for Seekers & Searchers (TTSS),
a personal and relational transformative journey.
TSS is a unique and timely integration of Laudato Si, the Universe Story, our Catholic/Christian Story and the Gospel values of Jesus.
Its objective is to offer personal and communal spiritual enrichment and transformation.
TTSS deepens our awareness of our inherent dignity and interdependence with one another and all creation. It urges us to become more conscious of our personal choices and their impact on our lives within our common home.
TTSS consists of 15 x 2 hour Group Gatherings
done in local/regional in person groups or virtually, led by a TTSS trained
Group Coordinator and Ritual Leader.
The Gatherings consist of the group viewing of the online Gathering videos of inspiring presentations that are interspersed with personal and communal reflection, interactive process and sharing, and meaningful ritual and prayer.
The fee for TTSS includes a 12 month subscription to the following resources:
- Full access to the TTSS resources of the 15 online Gatherings video
- 15 downloadable transcripts of the Gathering videos
- 15 Preview Guides & Ministry Integration Reflection
- Bridging Resources for personal in-depth follow up
- Music, prayer and ritual
- Continued access for 2 months AFTER the Gatherings have been completed.
The fee for all these resources with the 12 month subscription is £480 per person.
In addition to these resources, for those who are interested, an E-Certificate for
30 hours of spiritual formation in ecological spirituality is awarded upon
the completion of the TTSS journey.
Here’s what people are saying about their experience of TTSS
“The content, focus questions, reflective pauses/prayerful spaces, quotations, imagery, music and group sharing are rich, inspiring, informative and challenging…” (Michael)
“We found the discussion and reflection very engaging – this is because the content was very universal – non dualistic. People felt good that they could talk openly with others who were on
the same journey.” (Caroline)
“We have found the TTSS journey a prayerful experience that engaged us in a process that has both deepened and strengthened our spirituality. It was wonderful! The graphics and imagery were mesmerizing.” (Fran)
“It all makes so much sense… It touched me so deeply… I was drawn into and enjoyed every moment of the journey… I feel alive and am learning… Cosmic theology is making me think and think deeply… It was so profoundly and personally presented.” (Various Participants)

‘Spirituality of the Heart’
– The Four Paths of Creation Spirituality
(no prior knowledge needed)
Glenthorne Quaker Centre, Grasmere, 12th -18th April, 2024
‘Spirituality of the Heart’ invites us to deepen the experience of God’s presence in our lives. Set amidst the beautiful Lakes, this four- day course follows a traditional Christian journey through the Four Paths of Creation Spirituality to help our hidden selves grow strong.
Delighting in The Way of Wonder and Beauty, we also recognise the world’s struggles and our own through The Way of Pain and Letting-go. Accepting our woundedness, The Way of Creativity and Healing helps release our potential to be co-creators with God. Embracing The Way of Change and Transformation offers healing for ourselves and our broken world.
Facilitated by The Begin with the Heart Team, friends of the late Fr Daniel O’Leary, whose mission is to continue his work of offering a spirituality for anyone seeking a deeper and more fulfilling way of living.

05 July 2019 – Candlelight Fund
Daniel’s wish was that all profit from both An Astonishing Secret Book and the accompanying An Astonishing Secret Video Course should be donated to charity. In order to fulfil his wish we asked CAFOD to create a ‘Candlelight Fund’ in Daniel’s memory, with all donations being used for CAFOD’s disasters and emergencies work.
From the online course profits we were delighted to send £1000 to CAFOD on June 19th, the anniversary of Daniel’s ordination. We intend to make further donations at six-monthly intervals, as profits allow.
You can also donate to the fund directly at any time should you wish to honour Daniel’s memory in this way.
