In December 2023 the Prayers of blessing for same sex relationships were made available to be used in existing services in the Church of England. This decision has not been universally welcomed.

In this Diocese, we are being encouraged to engage in a process of discernment before deciding as parishes to actively opt into using these prayers (or not).

​

On Saturday February 17th 10am-12 there is a facilitated gathering in Christ Church Hall (Park Road) to prayerfully consider this question: 

What would opting in, or not opting in, to using the Prayers of Love and Faith mean for us as a Christian community? 

All are welcome to come along and join the conversation with each other and with God.
