Morning Prayer - Monday to Friday, at 9am

Morning Prayer follows the revised and combined monastic offices from the early Celtic church in Britain and seeks to reflect the traditions of Columba, Aidan and other early saints. We also have a list of tithe partners that we pray for when we meet as well as a prayer sheet, started during lock down and kept updated from the prayer chain. Copies are available on request via the office. For details visit:

https://www.northumbriacommunity.org/offices/morning-prayer/ or contact Andrew Pearson (apearson@adap.co.uk)

It takes place on Zoom on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 9am. On Tuesday and Thursday morning Celtic Prayer will be in Church, in the Chancel, at 9am.

Readings for the next few services

21^st April – Ephesians 1: 15-23 & Romans 12: 4-21

Hunstanton Methodist - campaign

Hunstanton Methodist Church has begun a crowdfunding campaign to raise money for the Methodist Circuit at Matjinge in Zimbabwe. Revd Dr Richman Ncube was educated at the school in Matjinge. Rich talked about his time at this school, and some of the challenges they face at our joint Good Friday Service. Here is the link if you are able to support this appeal in prayer or financially.
