God of Mission
who alone brings growth to the Church,
Send your Holy Spirit to give
Vision to our planning,
Wisdom to our actions,
Joy to our worship,
And power to our witness.
Help our church to grow in numbers,
In spiritual commitment to you.
And in service to our community,
Through Jesus Christ Our Lord
Amen
As part of our Year of Prayer for Growth and Renewal, the diocese has created opportunities for individuals and church groups to visit Whalley Abbey for some Quiet Days. Our first Quiet Day will be on Saturday 22 March and will be led by Steve Haskett.
Why not come along and bring people from your church? Further Quiet Days are offered on: 2 April; 5 June; 23 August and 21 October.
For more details and to book, please go to the Whalley Abbey events page which can be accessed here.

We are looking for someone to work with our Safeguarding Officer and to undertake the safe recruitment of volunteers.
The role is largely administrative and there will be some training. Volunteers are not recruited often so the role is not too time consuming.
If you would like more information please talk to the Vicar, John our Safeguarding Officer or Elaine Lockwood who did the role previously.
On Friday 28th March, the Friday before Mothering Sunday.
Come and enjoy a sociable evening in church with friends.
Hear about Tropics skin care products, take the opportunity to try some and if you wish to buy.
Tickets £5 to include a drink, they are available at the back of church or on the night
Next church cleaning session and garden tidy – up
Saturday 8th March between 9:30 – 10:30am.
All welcome to come along and help!
We are all members of the God’s church, so it would be lovely if you could spend just half hour or so to help make the church look nice and clean ready for Christmas ; you don’t have to stop the whole time. Please come and help if you can – the more helpers we have the quicker it can be done!
The more the merrier!
Thank you your help will be greatly appreciated
