Welcome to our services today. Revd Simon Winn, Vicar, is presiding at 8am and 10am. We welcome the Very Revd John Witcombe, Dean of Coventry Cathedral, as preacher at both services. Our church is proud to belong to the Community of the Cross of Nails whose home is Coventry Cathedral. Children’s Church is meeting in the Hall.

Please do join us for our Abide service today, Sunday 1 June, at 5.30pm in church. Abide is a reflection service with readings, prayers, reflections and music from the Taizé tradition.

The music for this service and the rest of the month can be found here.

A Prayer for Peace in the Middle East

Compassionate and loving God, we stand with those who cry in anguish in Israel, Palestine and Lebanon.
With those who have lost their lives to violence, those who mourn, those who have been displaced, those who are held unjustly against their will, those who have lost their homes and livelihoods.
We pray for an end to the fighting and violence
We pray for the courage to speak up for peace, to challenge the hatred in our own hearts and minds, and to do all that we can to make for the peace that builds our common life as the nations of your world.
Lord, move our hearts.

(A Prayer from Embrace the Middle East)
