Dear Friends Becky and Fiona have introduced a regular pattern of weekly Morning Prayer which engages with each parish month by month. We pray that this pattern of regular, committed prayer rooted in our parish churches will be a source of inspiration and create a firm foundation for the ministry and mission of every parish and community.We hope others will join us each week, especially people from the parish where we are meeting.Our intention is to:Meet every Monday at 9.30 am to say morning prayer.Meet in each parish church for one month at a time, taking parishes in alphabetical order. (See schedule below)Ask the ‘host’ parish to suggest specific prayer requests and make sure those requests are circulated more widely e.g. in Peter’s weekly email.Our first benefices' Morning Prayer will be at 9.30 on Monday 5 January in Addingham.
