If you’re curious about how to go deeper in your prayer, or would simply like to know how to respond to the various encouragements to prayer given in sermons and weekly notices, why not give these sessions a go. Each will last around an hour and a half and are designed to be accessible and enjoyable.

Each session will be based around a distinctive approach to prayer and will include some teaching and the opportunity to try a particular type of prayer. We’ll be looking at how our personality shapes our prayer, praying with pictures, the rosary, meditative prayer, using the imagination in prayer, silence, music, praying for justice and peace, creation praying and many other aspects of the Christian church’s rich and varied inheritance of prayer.

Meetings are scheduled to take place at Mother Enid’s flat. To help our planning and preparation, and to avoid unnecessary printing, please let us know if you intend to come to these sessions

Please contact Fr Rod for more information.
