An Invitation after Sunday
After John’s message to us as a Church on Sunday morning, you are invited to the Upper Room….to take a walk….and to the Church Gathering for Prayer…..
As a Church we usually set aside a Tuesday each week and provide a place with space – the UPPER ROOM – a place for time-out in our busy days. This is a safe place, and COVID-19 guidelines are carefully followed.
* A space to be still in a busy world – in the room above the Kirkgate Cafe 7.30am-7.30pm
** Private prayer for yourself and for others – come and go as you wish
* Listening to God – Father Son and Holy Spirit
** Opportunities to pause and pray with others at 8am…12 midday…7pm
You are invited to take a walk…
We would invite you to take a walk around the Kirkyard and consider what God is saying to you at this time from the words displayed at various locations from John 14….starting at the Offering House.
You are invited to use the bench at the top left of the Kirkyard (under the large tree) to pause and pray – to be still with God – to ask, seek, knock, wait and receive.
You are encouraged to be part of the Church Gathering for Prayer this Tuesday evening – on Zoom.
We will be puting courageous prayer into practice as we offer prayers of thanksgiving, as we wait together in God’s presence, as we focus on the General Assembly meeting this week and as we pray for others and each other.
Take courage – and join us!

Thy Kingdom Come at Midday
You are invited to pause at this time in your day and reflect on the daily video from Thy Kingdom Come on the theme of PRAY FOR
A Prayer from TKC
Transforming God, make me more like Jesus. And because I know my life is not like that, show me Jesus today.
And change my prayer from asking things for myself to asking you what you would like for me, so that my life can be part of your story. Help me to pray for others, that they may know Christ for themselves.
Amen.
