Daily Prayer: An Ancient Tradition for Modern Times?

Thursday 14th October 2021; 11.00am -3.30pm and hosted on Zoom

A day with three inputs and opportunities for discussion reflecting on:

• how recent experience adds to our understanding of creativity in increasing widespread appeal
• the development and scriptural foundations of Daily Prayer, especially the canticles and the lectionary
• the significance of Daily Prayer in building community, physically and online

This event will now be livestreamed on Zoom, as were our last two events. Plans to hold it in London have been abandoned because of continuing concerns over the on-going Covid situation.
