One of the advantages of a chapel in a hospital is that it can be opened safely. This is a lovely initiative from the chaplains at the Royal Blackburn Hospital. Let's keep praying for NHS staff and chaplains.

Have been reflecting on praying from the dining room at home -a place we only use for family meals and events at home where people join to eat, drink and chat to each other. Prayers said knowing there will be bubbling conversation there again

[St Peter's Darwen @StPeterDarwen]

If you joined us this morning for prayers or our service of the word you can join us on our Facebook page for evening prayer at 5.00pm - st Peter's church, Darwen, Lancashire. It will be lovely to join you.
