Prayer
SOXGRIP (South Oxfordshire Grass Roots
Initiative for Prayer) is a non-denominational group of people who meet together
to pray for the villages of Whitchurch, Whitchurch Hill, Woodcote and Goring
Heath. They meet on the last Thursday of each month and pray for all aspects of
life in the villages. If at any time you would like prayer for something, or
would like to join the prayer group, please contact Elizabeth Ricketts on 01491
682604.
Checkendon Prayer Group
Every Wednesday, a small group of people meet in Checkendon church from 11.00 -
11.30am to pray. This time of prayer is open to everyone and you are warmly
invited to come along either to join the group or to sit quietly with your own
thoughts and prayers. If you would like prayers to be said for yourself or on
behalf of others or for a particular concern please write the request on a slip
and place it in the box or on a leaf and attach it to the Prayer Tree which you
will find near the pulpit.
Alternative Prayer Group meets on the
second Monday of the month at 7.30pm. New members will be very welcome. Ring
Michael and Mary Weller on 01491 681692 for more details.
Whitchurch Prayer Group meets monthly, usually
on the last Thursday, at Little Eastfield, Eastfield Lane, Whitchurch-on-Thames.
We start at 8pm with tea or coffee and spend about an hour in bible study and
prayer. You will be given a warm welcome; if you cannot get to the meeting but
would like the group to pray for you or for a particular situation, you can fill
in a prayer slip in either St Mary's or St John's. Alternatively contact
churchwardens Valerie Kearney (0118 984 2437) or Paul Witcher (0118 984
4959).
