Prayer Journal Craft & Chat

for 2 hours
St Nicholas Church, Leicester
St Nicholas Church, St Nicholas Circle, Leicester, LE1 4LB, United Kingdom

Prayer Journals are little notebooks people use to record prayers, bits of scripture, who and what they’re praying for, and lots of other things. There are as many styles of journal as there are people!

As well as there being a tradition of giving things up during Lent, there’s also a tradition of taking up a new spiritual practice. Because of it’s flexibility a Prayer Journal is a great one to choose, so why not come and get one started with us, on this first Saturday of Lent?

The event is completely free and all materials will be provided, but if you already own a notebook you’d like to use for this, or have old prayer cards, images, or anything else you’d like to include in your journal, please do bring them along!

Drop in any time between 12:00 and 14:00

The church will remain open after the event, from 14:00 - 16:00 for our regular church opening hours, and there will be a service of Evening Prayer at 15:45. You are welcome to stay as long as you like.

Every Saturday we gather in the Lady Chapel for a gentle, contemplative, and informal service of Evening Prayer, following the Church of England book of Daily Prayer.

The Eucharist has been celebrated here for over 1100 years, come and join us as we continue that legacy of prayer.

At St Nicholas we use the Church of England’s Common Worship liturgy, and follow the Lectionary and the Liturgical Year.

We are an explicitly inclusive church, and encourage you to come as you are, so don’t worry if you’ve never been to church before, or are returning after a long time away, all are welcome here. There are fidget toys available for those who need them, as well as a craft table for children. More information on what to expect can be found at our website: https://stnicholasleicester.com/

Please do stay after the service is over, refreshments will be available, and we’d be delighted to have a chat with you (if you want that).

Stations of the Cross Craft & Chat

for 2 hours
St Nicholas Church, Leicester
St Nicholas Church, St Nicholas Circle, Leicester, LE1 4LB, United Kingdom

Get creative as you help create a set of Stations of the Cross during this relaxed afternoon of craft and conversation.

After we work together to create these 14 images they will be arranged in numbered order in the church, so that during Holy Week people may visit them, stopping at each station to say prayers and engage in reflection.

The event is completely free, so drop in any time between 12:00 and 14:00.

The church will remain open after the event, from 14:00 - 16:00 for our regular church opening hours, and there will be a service of Evening Prayer at 15:45. You are welcome to stay as long as you like.
