The Quiet Day starts in the Church at 10.30. There will be a short period of music; inspiring images; a reading and some prayers. The rest of the morning will be free for you to read; pray; sit and reflect; be creative with spiritual colouring and simply be at peace in a peaceful place.

The afternoon is similar to the morning but about 2.15 we gather together for a simple Celtic Holy Communion Service lead by Rev Peter. The day ends by 3.00pm.

Come and see….stay as long as you wish. Take a break and have an hour or two just for yourself to feel and be in God’s perfect peace.
