Forthcoming events

EVENTS IN JULY 2019

EVERY SATURDAY, 8.30-9.00 am (Plaistow church)

+ Parish Prayer at Plaistow

Each Saturday morning at Holy Trinity Church in Plaistow we gather for half an hour of prayer, beginning at 8.30 am and finishing as the clock strikes nine o'clock.   Everybody is welcome - whether you have something specific to pray for or not.  You can voice your prayer openly or keep it private or simply affirm the prayers of others.   It's not a service as such - there are no processions, rituals, hymns or music.  We just sit around the big table and pray.

TUESDAY 16TH JULY, 6.30 pm (St Mary's church, Petworth)

+ Petworth Festival Service

This is the launch to the Petworth Festival, giving thanks to God for the amazing creativity that we're blessed to see and hear. There'll be a selection of music, readings and hymns, with an address by Stewart Collins on his 10th anniversary as Artistic Director of the Petworth Festival.

This event is orgaised by Petworth Area Churches Together (PACT).
