Pastoral Listening & Prayer Ministry
Pastoral Prayer Ministry offers a listening service for you to share what is on your mind. Trained and experienced team members will support you either once, or over a few sessions to listen and offer more in-depth prayer in a confidential space. Prayer and chat over the phone are also available or we are happy to meet up at the café and listen over a coffee.

We can visit you at home or elsewhere such as the Church Café or Prayer Room, for a one-off session or more if you wish. Whether you consider yourself young or old, there are times we all need a listening ear and encouragement as we journey through life. Whatever your situation or need, we are here to come alongside you with the offer of loving pastoral care in a way that suits you.
