The Pre-Raphaelites were a group of artists founded in 1848. They wanted paintings to be imaginative and realistic, while often containing symbolism. Many of their paintings remain
popular and well-known. During this short course we’ll look at four Pre-Raphaelite paintings, exploring their messages about faith and our response. We’ll meet at 7:30pm in a private
residence in Henton with parking, Email Katrina to book your place: [email protected]

This is a beautiful service, which uses service booklets so that you know which parts the minister says, and which parts the congregation say aloud. One of the main parts of the service is the Psalm for the day, which is either said aloud or sung. This is followed by readings from the Bible, including the joyous words of the Virgin Mary when she learned she would give birth to Jesus, and the heartfelt words of Simeon, when he recognises the Messiah when he meets Jesus. The service ends with prayers: the Lord's Prayer, the prayer for the day, a prayer for peace and a prayer for help against troubles. There are four hymns which are sung during the service, and a a short talk too.
