Celtic Devotions February ’16

February 2016

As we move through 2016 you are encouraged to take time each day and use the daily devotional guide – we start by travelling through PSALM 119 and then take up Catching the Wave (the booklet proved by TryPraying) as we enter the period of Lent. The Devotions are one way to feed on God’s Word in the morning, at midday and in the evening….. to Pray with Him continually through your day…and even to share with others the treasures or hurdles that you discover along the way.

More information? See the Daily Celtic Devotions posted….the magazine…..and the comments under the Prayer tab…..

You are invited to spend half an hour enjoying the peace and beauty of our Kirkyard and following the Peace Pathway which is there from 8am to 8pm throughout July and August. Start at the Offering House just inside the main gate, where the Introduction is on the outside wall. You will be led on a journey anti-clockwise round the church building with eight “stations” where you can pause and read and pray. Please avoid the scaffolding and take care if you walk on the grass. If you are unable to visit the Kirkyard, you can read the Peace Pathway by clicking the picture below. This is part of our Word for Today series, and you can read previous Words for Today by clicking here.
