Lunchtime Prayers on Friday at 12.15
Every Friday, Jane or a member of the Ministry Team will be in one of our churches saying the ‘Prayer During the Day’ service from Common Worship. https://www.churchofengland.org/prayer-and-worship/worship-texts-and-resources/common-worship/daily-prayer/prayer-during-day (scroll this link to find the Friday service for Advent .) You are invited to join them, or to follow the service at home, knowing you are praying together in that way. This is currently in Westcote Barton Church.
