As we look forward to the Revd Christine Crabtree coming as our new minister in September, we continue to pray for everyone in Meriden. We are praying especially for the residents of one street each week. You will find which street we are praying for on our noticeboard. We also have a 'prayer tree' in our vestibule, where anyone in the local community can leave personal prayer requests - hung on luggage tags - when the church is open.

When the church is closed there is a prayer box next to the main door of the church where you can post your prayer requests. Or you can email helen.bishop@gmail.com.

"Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns." St Paul, quoted in Philippians 4.6 (The Message Bible Translation).
