As things become increasingly strange and we see less of each other, one of the most of important things we can do is pray for each other. As you know, the church is open every day, offering a quiet space to come and sit and think and pray if you would like to. There is now a ‘prayer box’ in church (near the door) so that if there is anything that you would like prayer for please write it down and put it in the box and it will be prayed for. Alternatively if you are on Facebook you can find us at St Edmunds Taverham (see icon at bottom of main church page to go direct). Once there you can DM (Direct Message) us to let us know what you would like us to pray about.This way we can continue to pray together even though we aren’t physically together. Please share.
