Prayer is at the heart of every Christian life and at the centre of parish life. On this page you can find some information about prayer at St Agnes' and a link to a form where you can ask us to pray for you. Find out more about prayer requests here.
Daily Prayer
We meet every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to say Evening Prayer together in church. You can join us at 5pm for this short time of prayer or follow us online. More details here.
Prayer Tree
The prayer tree has been developed as a way of organising quickly a number of people to pray for people or situations often at short notice. Each member of the tree would know the name and phone number of the next person in the chain and would pass on prayer requests as necessary so that every member of the tree would be aware that at a certain time on a certain day the group would pray for the specific request. This form of prayer was felt to be an important way of showing our pastoral care for one another. Why not join a tree today? Click here to contact us for details.
Prayer Walk
In the past our prayer walks have usually involved walking around the local streets for 15 minutes or so before our usual monthly 'Thirty Minutes with God' and then using the things we have seen as a focus of prayer for our community. We are currently designing new walks for Summer 2010. They are planned for Sunday 1st August 2010 at 6pm and Tuesday 17th August at 1pm - full details will appear here and in the Parish Diary.
