Intercessions Preparation Session led by Revd Karen. Saturday 20th September at 10.00am at The Vicarage: Intercessions are a vital part of many church services, offering an opportunity to bring the needs of the world, the church and individuals before God in prayer.

This session aims to equip intercession leaders with the tools and inspiration to write their own prayers. Refreshments provided.
