Prayer

You will find a focus for your prayer in this week’s Home Ministry Prayer Cycle:

And here is the Ross and Archenfield Deanery prayer cycle:

Your prayers are particularly asked for those who are ill, for those who are troubled or who have recently died. We pray also for those who live and work in our town and villages. In union with people throughout the diocese we pray for the needs of our Diocese and the world.

The clergy include prayers that are normally left at the prayer stands in our churches. You can also leave those requests digitally using the “Please pray for …” button

St Mary’s Thursday Prayer Group meets on Zoom from 11.45 am each week. Please let us know using the form on this page if you have specific prayer requests.

Everyone is welcome to join us by using the button below. You will, however, need the password to join, please contact us for that. There is help for getting started with Zoom on the Digital Meetings page.
