Day of Prayer for the people of the Middle East

2026-candle

Wednesday 1st April 10am-12 noon
St Mary's Church

Following a call from our Primus, Rt Revd Mark Strange, we invite you to come and join us in prayer, solidarity and hope for the people of the Middle East.
During the morning there will be set prayers offered. There will also be space to sit in silence with those affected, to lament, light a candle, write a prayer or words of hope, and offer all of this to God.
All are welcome to come and pray together – for a few minutes or longer – for peace, protection and an end to this conflict.

Pause for Prayer

Our weekly prayer time at 10am on a Wednesday will incorporate a Lenten devotion. We meet in the home of Judy and Denis Samways. Please let Revd Alison know if you would like to join us.

Planning your Visit

New to church?

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

We meet at Greyfriars Church (details here) for our Sunday Service starting at 11am. For your first visit, we recommend arriving 10 minutes early to ensure you get a parking space and find somewhere to sit before the service begins. When you arrive, you will be greeted by someone on our Welcome Team.

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits after the service. It is a great way to meet people and find out more about us.

Accessibility: There is wheelchair access, and a sound loop for anyone who needs it. If you need a large print service book, please ask.

Our Service

The main service begins with a warm welcome from our Priest-in-Charge. Our service of Holy Communion includes hymns accompanied on the organ, bible readings, a sermon, prayers of intercession and responses. If you are a communicant member of another church, you are invited to share Holy Communion with us. Or if you prefer, you can come to the altar for a prayer of blessing.

Serving and Volunteering

Once you've settled here with us, if you want to get involved in the life of the church and help us make Sundays run smoothly, you can sign up to serve on a team. It's also a great way to get to know more people.
