Wednesdays @ 8pm

For many of us, with busy lives and demands on our time, spending time in worship seems more of an ideal than something we can actually do. So, on Wednesday evenings at St Anne's, we have a variety of styles of worship. So, whether you would like the discipline of sitting in silence, being lead in prayer, the mental stimulation of listening to and talking about part of the Christian Faith, getting your more artistic side engaged and your hands active or sinking into the quiet rhythm of a Celtic Eucharist, come and see.

Confirmation classes

It has been my privilege to attend a number of confirmation services. There is always one phrase that sets my heart tingling. Are you ready with your own mouth and from your own heart to affirm your faith in Jesus Christ? This great sense of ownership, of personal belief, impacts my soul. I always quietly ask this question of myself. Am I ready? Well, for those who are not Confirmed and would like to be, we will be running a series of classes in Autumn. We will begin on 5th October. If you would like to join us please let Julian know

Cursillo

When I was a curate I was invited by a neighbouring priest to participate in a Cursillo. I did not know what he was talking about but as it involved a Sunday away from the parish and someone else was cooking, that sounded pretty good. I imagined that, as a newly minted priest myself, I would sit apart from the other folks and watch and learn. Instead, I was treated as an equal with all the other participants and was exposed to a really powerful presentation of the Christian gospel. It blew my mind. All that knowledge I had stored in my head suddenly took a back step as the reality of Christ and his grace was shared with us in an amazing yet gentle way. Chester Cursillo is running a weekend (Thursday evening to Sunday afternoon) at the end of October (29th October - 1st November). I cannot recommend this highly enough.

There is more information about Cursillo here http://www.ukcursillo.org/
