Prayer & Resources

cross

Prayer is at the heart of our life together — a way to draw closer to God, find strength for each day, and listen for His guiding voice. Each week, we share a Prayer for Growth and Renewal, inviting us to open our hearts to God’s presence and to grow in faith, hope, and love as a community.
You’ll also find inspiration and prayers for the week ahead on the back pages of our notice sheet. These reflections are designed to help you pause, pray, and carry faith into your daily life. If you’d like to revisit previous reflections, you can explore them in our Back Pages Archive, where all past editions are available.
For more ways to deepen your prayer life, visit the Church of England’s prayer resources page, which offer daily prayers, readings, and reflections for every season as well as our monthly prayer list which encourages us to pray for our community each and every day. There's also details about the Fruitful Faith app and our centenary year, produced by the Diocese of Blackburn!

During Lent and Holy Week, we also offer resources for praying the Stations of the Cross — a reflective journey through the final moments of Jesus’ life. You can download our leaflet to guide you through scripture, reflection, and prayer at your own pace, whether at home or in church. The Stations provide a meaningful way to deepen your prayer life during this season and to walk more closely with Christ in his journey to the cross.
