PRAYER SPACE AT ST LAURENCE: The Theme is ‘Fill this Space with Prayer’. Everyone who attends/visits St Laurence Church is invited to take a moment to stop and find time to add a prayer to Thank God for all he does for us and to also to take the time to add a prayer for those who need His support and how we can help provide the support needed. If you are unable to physically attend church, contact Sue Booker via the office and she will write it up for you and add to the Prayer Tree.

The Prayer for Pebbles on Pentecost Sunday was ‘Fill my life, Holy Spirit of God, with joy and love and hope. Live in me so I can show others how much you love them. Amen’ and the inspiration for the new Theme.
