Our lives are crowded. We live in a world that demands much and gives little pause. Many people carry the hidden weight of loneliness or exhaustion. Into this noise, Christ calls us:
“Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)
In that spirit, we are beginning a new monthly Sunday evening gathering of The Magdalen Fellowship of Healing & Prayer —a space to rest, reset, and reconnect with God.
📅 The Shape of the Evening
- 5.30pm – Gather for fellowship: bring your supper, drink tea with us, and meet in the warmth of Christian community.
- 6.30pm – A short prayer leads us into a time of Christian meditation and contemplative silence. We end in stillness, leaving quietly, carrying peace into the week.
This is not another meeting to busy our diaries. It is an invitation into what the early mystics called holy leisure—a time of peace, quiet, and spiritual renewal.
This evening gathering will be such a place, where you can be.
✨ Come and See
This Sunday evening gathering is an open invitation to all. The Magdalen Fellowship delights in being multi denominational and St Johns is always proudly inclusive. Whether your faith is strong or fragile, whether you are used to stillness or find it unfamiliar, you are welcome. Come and sit in the candlelight. Come and taste the quiet. Come and meet God in the silence.
“Be still before the Lord, and wait patiently for him.” (Psalm 37:7)
In the quiet, Christ meets us. In the silence, we are healed. And in the fellowship of God’s people, no one is ever alone.
You are warmly invited. Sept 21st, Oct 19th, Nov 16th. The group also meets weekly on Mondays at 10:30 (at St John’s) with the first meeting of the month being a Eucharist, Laying of Hands and Anointing.
