Praying Hands "Cast you burden on the Lord and he shall sustain you" (Psalm 55:22)

Prayer is a most important part of our fellowship with the Lord. Find here some ideas for that quiet time with God and an opportunity to send us your prayer requests.

Our church has a monthly Prayer meeting, Together in Prayer, and a fortnightly prayer group. Details of these can be found on our Fellowship page.

Prayer of the Month

Lord God of the nations,
we have seen the star of your glory rising in splendour.

The radiance of your incarnate Word
pierces the night that covers the earth
and signals the dawn of justice and peace.

May this brightness illumine our lives
and beckon all nations to walk as one in your light.

We ask this through Jesus Christ your Word made flesh,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
in the splendour of eternal light, God forever and ever. Amen

(Chalice Worship)

Ideas for Prayers

Many people find prayer hard. Pray without Ceasing was an initiative set up by the Methodist Church in 2005 and continues to be a resource where you will find many suggestions for prayers in Church and in your day to day life, together with links to other resources.

A Word in Our Time is a daily bible study linked to the Methodist Prayer Handbook and offers commentary, explanations and questions on the day's prayer. You can either read it on their website or download a podcast for listening to on your computer or MP3 player. Visit their website to find out more.

Post your Prayer Requests

If you, or someone you know, are in need of prayer, we will be glad to help.
All you need to do is to email your request to and it will be taken up and held in prayer before God on a regular basis and in complete confidence.
