For many years the Anglican Diocese of Melbourne offered at the Retreat House in Cheltenham a ministry of spirituality, direction and retreats.

At the end of 2000 Retreat House was closed and the ministry was transferred to a new base in the context of this inner city parish. Since its commencement it has developed as a partnership with the parish community.

The ministry and teaching team comprises a number of lay and ordained folk who hold the license of the Archbishop of Melbourne for this ministry.
