Come early for a coffee and a chat with Pastor Lorraine from 4pm. At 5:30pm we gather to pray for our church work and outreach, for our community and for those who are sick and in need. This type of prayer is called intercession. Then one of our ministers opens up the word of God in a friendly, informal meeting where we gather around the Bible for an hour.
