I also visited St Philemon’s on a number of occasions during Colin Bedford’s time when I worked with the Ruanda Mission.

After the Prayer Walk why not join us at St Gabriel's to clean up for Sunday. During the building work this is even more necessary and the more who turn up the quicker it will be done. Be a blessing.

Come and join us this Saturday as we prayer walk around     the Dingle. What is prayer walk - a group of us walk around the area stopping to pray as we feel lead and engaging people we meet.
