Pause to Pray

Each Thursday evening a group of us gather to pray for personal, parish and global concerns. We sometimes focus our prayers by studying God's word, or share bread and wine together using a simple communion service drawn from Iona material. Do join us - some come every week, but really it's a case of come as you feel led. Please note that we will be moving the location for Pause to Pray to St Aidan's starting from the first week of September 2025.
