Waking the Dawn

We have met almost every Saturday morning since April 2016 and have experienced some incredible times as we have prayed and worshipped together. It is a growing group but there is still space for anyone who wants to join us, and you would be very welcome as we worship God, push into his presence, bring before him the needs of our communities and pray for the Holy Spirit to come and heal our land.
