Evening Prayer and Eucharist from the Celtic Tradition with prayers for healing every Sunday at 5 pm. The ancient Celtic Christians of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland were in tune with creation and profoundly aware of God's presence in all created things. The prayers and blessings used in this candle light evening service are adopted from traditional Celtic sorces and contemporary sources including the Northumbria Community, Phillip Newell, David Adam and prayers from the Reverend Janet Vincent for the Order of the Holy Cross in Grahamstown, South Africa. You are welcome to come as you are and go away refreshed.
