A Service of Silence & Beholding

An unhurried time in which to dwell at the heart of the Eucharist 

Sunday 26th October 8am
St. Mary's Church, Sullington, RH20 4AE

As we gather in silence, we come just as we are, 
to seek the face of God
and to wait upon the Divine presence.
In the stillness and silence, in our attentiveness and our letting go, 
the silence will deepen,
so we also depart quietly, taking whatever has been received in this time into the day. 
Apart from a short introduction, there are no announcements;
the reading and prayers are offered as stepping stones in the quiet, 
taking us deeper into the mystery of the sacrament.

'The Father spoke one Word, which was His Son, 
and this Word He always speaks in eternal silence, 
and in silence it must be heard by the soul.'
St. John of the Cross

Peace be with you
