                        Synaxis - monthly prayer 

                        Picture
                        Synaxis (Greek) simply means assembly or gathering. In the Christian tradition it means an assembly for liturgical purposes, and this is what we want to do: to bring together people from different contexts experiencing traditional liturgy in a contemporary context. We want to share the experience of singing and of silence, of prayer and contemplation.  In a creative form of vespers or evening prayer we wish to share the mystery of the Immanuel - God with us. 

                        Refreshments will be available after each service.

                        Synaxis services

                        Wednesdays at 7pm (tea and coffee served from 6.30pm)
                        Synaxis is having a break over the winter. New dates will be announced here in the new year.

                        Prayer

                        For prayer at home, there are some really good resources available.  There is an excellent website run by the Jesuits that offers a creative daily resource for prayer.

                        If you would like to know more about different patterns of daily prayer do please ask one of the clergy.
