Caring for each other and for those around us is an important part of our Christian life, following the example of Jesus Christ. We offer this care to the community through our many services, ministries, activities and through prayer and personal contact. And we never underestimate the power of prayer in the situations we come across – our experience tells us that prayer changes things, and God often transforms things to bring good out of bad.

Ill or in hospital?
If you are ill or you know someone from the parish who is ill or in hospital, please let the ministry team know and then visits can be arranged if that is what is desired. We like to support both the person who is sick and also their family. We can also add names to our weekly prayer list, but please check with the person first.
Holy Communion and/or anointing are available for anyone who is sick and would like this. It can be comforting to be anointed before facing surgery. It brings comfort and peace.
