Midweek Services at St Mary’s in December 2019 and January 2020
We have a 10am Said Eucharist in the Lady Chapel on Wednesdays, and this will take place on every Wednesday in December and January, except for 25 Dec and 1 Jan. At the Wednesday Eucharists we pray particularly for our families, friends and the local community. The Said Eucharist on 22nd January falls in the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. We will pray particularly for the unity of the church, and the service will be followed by coffee at the Rectory.
The Rector says Morning and Evening Prayer in the Lady Chapel at St Mary’s Lapworth, Monday to Thursday. All are welcome. After Morning or Evening Prayer is a good time to catch the Rector in church.
830am Morning Prayer, finishes about 845am (Mon-Thurs, but not 26 Dec to 2 Jan)
500pm Evening Prayer, finishes about 5.15pm (Mon-Thurs, but not 12 Dec, 25 Dec to 2 Jan, or 23 Jan)
