It is with great sadness that we announce that Canon Alan passed very peacefully on Friday morning, 12th June. His sister, Sarah and Emerson were with him. Canon Alan was in no pain and although much weaker these last few days, he did not lose his humour and concern for you all. His love continued to shine through.

Praying the Psalms

Jesus grew up praying the psalms. In these unsettled times, maybe we too can find nourishment, consolation and healing in the wisdom of these ancient songs. Join us online for a time of prayer with the psalms – starting Monday 15 June 7-7.30 pm.
