May all that is unforgiven in you be released
May your fears yield their deepest tranquilities
May all that is unloved in you blossom into a future that is
Graced with love.
John O’Donohue

In St Mary’s prayer cycle for this month, at Epiphany, we pray that as the Magi were led by a star to worship God's Son, that people throughout the world will come to the knowledge of God's love.

In these unprecedented times, St Mary’s is reaching out and supporting our community in many ways, especially online. But with activities in our buildings greatly restricted, we no longer receive the previous level of financial support from collections at Services, nor from hiring out the church and hall buildings.
If you can help us financially to continue to offer Christ's love to our community in these difficult times, as those before us have done down the centuries, please consider making a donation by debit/credit card and to Gift Aid it if possible, by clicking this link to 'givealittle':
Thank you!
