Prayer Space We appreciate that praying privately and confidentially can be difficult in church particularly as often people are clearing away at the end of the service. If you would like to chat and pray in private there is a small room on the main school corridor that you can use. There should be a sign indicating which room it is so please feel free to use it. Likewise, if you would like someone to pray with you, Simon, Robin or one of the leadership team would be more than happy to. Friday Gathering Our monthly evening gatherings are back! The Gathering is a relaxed and informal space for prayer and worship. An opportunity to come together, with little structure, to share, receive and worship.
