Families are welcome to come into the church and use the children's resources for 'Stay and Play'. We are hoping that Mini Messy Church will start again in due course.

Held in St Margaret’s Church

On the second Monday of the month at 2.30 pm

Julian meetings are held all over the world to foster the practice and teaching of meditation and contemplative prayer within the Christian tradition.

It is a chance to still oneself from the busyness of life, to enter into deep silence, stillness. Many people repeat a word quietly to centre their prayer and as the mind may wander, come back to the word.

We start with music to steady our thoughts. This leads us into our 40 minutes of silence and then music once again to lead us out from the depths of stillness. We then finish with tea and cake and chat.

If you would like to come along and give it a go, you can be sure of a very warm welcome as we enter silence together. We look forward to meeting you.

If this has stirred your curiosity about contemplative prayer, Mother Julian of Norwich, or you would like to find out more then please do not hesitate to contact me.

Every fourth Sunday in the month, we celebrate a family friendly Holy Communion, with a simplified order of service, and a more accessible style of music. There is an informal band for the songs, and video projection of liturgy and lyrics. There is a play area for the youngest members of the family. After the service, drinks and biscuits are available and everyone is encouraged to stay and socialise.

Enjoy singing well known hymns and then share tea and cake together.
