St Philip's |
At St Philip's, we glorify God and make disciples by creating a community where we live the love of Christ. "Come and see" said Jesus' friend Philip when Nathaniel asked him about Jesus. We invite you to "come and see" what the good news of Jesus Christ is about!

Starting this week on Wednesday 16th, Evening Prayer will be held at 6pm each Wednesday, in the Lamerton Centre (easier to keep warm in Winter!). The service will be for 40-45mins, following form of EP in the Prayer book but allowing time for contemplation or reflection during the prayers as well. It is intended to offer a weekday space for prayer as a community.
Starting on Sunday 3rd August, we will be offering a non-eucharist service at 5pm on the first Sunday of each month. In August this service will be held in the Lamerton Centre as it is easier to heat. This will be a reflective service using some Taize´ as well as other reflective practices. In August the theme will be Listening in God’s Presence.
