We are delighted that after comprehensive preparations, following Church of England and Diocesan guidelines, we are opening the doors of St Swithin’s Church for people to come in for private prayer at a safe physical distance on Wednesdays from 12noon - 2pm. In order to keep you and everyone else safe please take careful note of the following points: OPEN SPACE IS NOW POSTPONED In light of current events our building is currently completely closed. We would love to have our space open for prayer and will let you know when that is possible. In this season the church building is set up as a safe space to come in and be still and pray. It will be open from 9:15am - to 4:30pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. You can socially distance with some visual installations to help inspire us in our prayers. We are in an exciting but challenging season of prayer. Pretty much every Christian meet would love to see their prayer life grow and develop.
This year we are trialling “Lent Streams”. These will replace weekly Life Groups for these weeks in March, and everyone is encouraged to opt into one of the groups on offer – whether or not they are regular members of a Life Group.
Join us down at Bath Abbey on Shrove Tuesday as we gather with Christians from across the city to Pray for Bath. Our next Silent Prayer session will take place on Friday 31st January at 2pm in the Prayer Room here at St Swithin's. All are welcome. Join us as we spend time listening to God and pray for our world, our city, the life of the church and our day to day lives. CHOPs (Community Houses of Prayer) are meeting on Tuesday 13th August. Why not take a break from our Life Groups programme to join your local CHOPs group for prayer? CHOPs (Community Houses of Prayer) are meeting tonight. Do join us here to pray for the local community or find a group meeting locally to you.
We love students and they are particularly on our mind during exam seasons. Please join us in praying for them and also for the Bath Spa Chaplaincy Team who have been invited by Bath Spa University to provide a fun, festival-esque space for students to relax during the exam period.
An evening of prayer on Tuesday 4th June 2019 at 7:30pm. Join us to hear from God and to pray for each other and our world.
This prayer initiative has spread all over the world. Christians in Bath are starting this year’s Thy Kingdom Come in Bath Abbey, 7:30pm on Thursday 30th May.
Easter is a time of the year where Christians celebrate. At the centre of the story of Easter is the Death and Resurrection of Jesus. An empty cross has become one of the great symbols for Christianity, this may seem curious to others but continues to change lives today. Come and join us to discover the wonder of Easter.
6th March 2019, 7:30pm. Do join us this time next week as we start our Lenten journey together... a season of facing reality with God, whether that's tending to the needs of our world, navigating challenges of life, letting something go, or taking something up. There will be no 12noon communion service on that day.
