Church Weekend 2020

Welcome to the homepage for our 2020 Weekend Away: Together at Home

Our 2020 weekend away has finished but most of the resources remain for you to continue to explore our theme of prayer beyond our 11-days.

We are continuing our Year of Prayer and using this as our theme for our Church Weekend. Although we can’t gather as planned, we’re taking the opportunity to extend our weekend to 11 days!

Through the 11 days you’re invited to choose from a range of resources that we hope will help you to think about prayer and to explore ways of praying at a pace that suits you – whatever your age.

Our theme is prayer and all of our resources are on this webpage. This includes information about social activities, videos, teaching, music, reflections, and children’s activities to help us all to pray and to learn more about prayer.

Here’s how you can participate in our 11-day ‘weekend away’

START BY PRAYING Be intentional and ask God to guide you as you discern which resources you might explore;
TAKE A LOOK AT THE RESOURCES Browse this webpage and the various links. There are some suggested options but ultimately you choose how much or how little you are able to engage with. It’d be great if we could journey together through the 11 days but the resources will also be available afterwards if this isn’t a good time for you;
CHOOSE SOMETHING Choose one or two of the resources, or one of the suggested pathways, and be open to how God might speak to you as you explore;
SHARE WITH OTHERS We believe that God can speak to us when we pray and when we listen. It’d be great to hear how God speaks to you, or perhaps hear about something new that you’ve learned or experienced during our ‘weekend’. Click the SHARE WITH OTHERS BUTTON to see how you might share;
WORSHIP Prayer is part of our gathered worship too. Join the morning services on Sunday 24th and 31st – a special ‘weekend away’ service on May 31st!
GET SOCIAL Our weekend away wouldn’t be complete without some social activities! There’ll be some baking and a photo scavenger hunt during the week and a FUN QUIZ online on Saturday May 30th
