A Service of Silence & Beholding

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

Sunday 25th October
8a.m.
St. Mary's Church, Sullington, 
West Sussex RH20 4AE



'... if we are willing to be fully who we are in the equipoise of solitude, in the Silence of God, each of us is testing the edges of darkness, of unknowing, of death, testing the edges because only there is life. Faith is not assent to doctrines or surrounding ourselves with props and propositions. It is trust that God - as Christ shows us - has been there before us, goes within us, waits to find us beyond the edges of utter dark. And, found by God, we become aware that God is closer to our being than we are ... We find ourselves free-falling in eucharistic ungraspingness; and in faith we choose to continue to go on disturbing the universe, co-creating with God by our life and by our death become prayer in the mystery of grace.'
