Prayer Groups

Introduction

The parish should be ‘school of prayer’ said the Bishops of England and Wales in ’Easter People’. The Church has a great and rich tradition of different forms of prayer. The Liturgical life of the Church is at the heart of all our prayer. We are all called to develop our own personal relationship with God through the way we pray throughout the day. As a community we try help each of us to find the best way to do that.

WE PRAY THE PRAYER OF THE CHURCH at 9am each weekday morning before the 9.30am Mass.
