Eventually our long awaited return to Shepherds Dene on Armistice Day and a beautiful autumn day.

A day of prayer and reflection was led by Rev'd Gill Alexander and Rev'd Michael Sadgrove

The peaceful surroundings of Shepherds Dene gave us the opportunity to quietly remember all those who have lost their lives in conflicts, past and present, to reflect on the events of the last two years amid our changing planet, to gain inspiration from one another and hope for the future.

CREATOR GOD

The world you have made is wonderful

We are sorry for our exploitation of the earth

We are fearful of the consequences of what we have done

Lord have mercy on our planet

Give us the courage to speak 

The strength to make sacrifices

And the will to change

In your love for what you have made

Heal and restore our land.

AMEN    ( Inspiring Prayer)
