Our services are on Sunday at 10.30 am and 6.30pm. The morning service consists of hymns, prayers, meditations, readings, music and an address. It lasts about an hour and afterwards we go through into the hall to share tea, coffee and conversation. In the evening we hold a more meditative service centred around two short periods of silent prayer and the lighting of 'candles of joy and concern'. It lasts about three-quarters of an hour and afterwards we remain together in conversation over tea and coffee.
