Breathe. Sometimes we can find it hard to get space to stop, take a deep breath and rest in the presence of God.
Jesus invites his disciples to come and sit, be still and know the presence of God. This is a tricky task as often it seems counterproductive in a world driven by targets, goals and output. We might even find ourselves seeking productivity from our regular Sunday worship. BREATHE is a service of contemporary music and contemplation. As the dictionary puts it, to breathe is to “take air into the lungs and then expel it, especially as a regular physiological process.” Our hope with Breathe is that we will find space to breathe in the Holy Spirit as part of a spiritual process which will give rest and rejuvenation to the physical.
We aim to create a place of encounter with the divine.
