Prayer Group [Wednesdays 10.00 am)
There are approximately 11 members of the prayer group at present, together with telephone link members, and more are always welcome. We pray in turn for all the groups who use our buildings, and many opportunities for service are offered by the prayer requests, which are left in the box on the Welcome Area table. We also offer prayers of thanksgiving and share concerns for members of the church family, local, national and international events. The bond formed by praying together is like no other and you would be warmly welcomed to join us.

We have also had a visit to Porters and enjoyed a Garden Party and Christmas and Birthday Tea, to name a few. We have a summer break for July and August.
