We have four Prayer Groups that meet regularly:
The Bethany Prayer Group
The Bethany Prayer Group is a charismatic prayer group that meets on Tuesday evenings (7:30– 9:30pm) in the Parish Centre (and also via Zoom). Prayer meetings begin with a time of sharing news and how God has been present in our lives during the past week. This is followed by prayer of intercession in which we pray in tongues. This is followed by a time of praise and worship and then a period of silent prayer. We then share "Words or Pictures" that we have received during prayer.
If you want to know more or to join us please contact Gerry Connor on gjconnor54@gmail.com .
Divine Mercy Prayer Group
The Divine Mercy Prayer Group meets in No. 10 (opposite the main door of the church) on Friday afternoons 2:45-3:45pm.
A Place for Prayer
This is an informal prayer group which meets in the front room of Number 10. 6.30 p.m. - 7.30 p.m.
We meet on the last Thursday of each month from September to June, and hold a weekly session during Advent and Lent.
We explore different ways of praying including Lectio Divina, Labyrinth prayers and Gazing prayers.
Scripture, reflections and music, interspersed with silence and stillness, help us to pray for our own needs,
and the needs our families, our parishes and the wider world.
Everyone Welcome!
Mothers Prayers
Mothers Prayers was launched in England in 1995 by two Catholic women and is now in over 50 countries. It was founded to help those mothers who wished to pray together for their children and grandchildren and to support each other. A group may be started with ;only two mothers/grandmothers and a maximum of eight. The group usually meets every week at a convenient time and in one persons house or on a rotational basis and obeys the strict rule of confidentiality. A special Mothers prayers booklet and format is used but there is time for more spontaneous prayer and sharing which increases as relationships grow.
At the moment there are two groups in our partnership.
If anyone is interested in joining one of the groups, starting a new group, needs help starting a new group or further information please contact Anne Connor 07721997562.
