Prayer and worship
We encourage you to continue in worship and prayer in different ways, whether that be individually in your own homes or online. We have a wide selection of resources for prayer and worship in an online format, explore those you wish to get involved in. You may find one you want to use every week, or you may wish to join different services and communities each week.
