Lauds 2025

This year our Lauds services will be self reflection at home, every week you will find a single sheet printable leaflet, based on the Church of England's Living Hope publication and a link to a hymn.

There are points for self reflection on page two, or you could like to meet with friends on ZOOM or for coffee to discuss these before continuing with your journey.
