‘When it’s over, I want to say: all my life
I was a bride married to amazement.
I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms’
From ‘When death comes by’ by Mary Oliver

In St Mary’s prayer cycle for this month, today we pray for the NHS and all who give their knowledge and expertise to care for others.

Please donate if you can!
In these unprecedented times, St Mary’s is reaching out and supporting our community in many ways, especially online. But with Services in church cancelled, we no longer receive income from collections, nor from hiring out the church and hall buildings.
If you can help us financially to continue to offer Christ's love to our community in these difficult times, as those before us have done down the centuries, please consider making a donation by debit/credit card and to Gift Aid it if possible, by clicking this link to 'givealittle':
Thank you!
