Prayer at St Andrew's


Through Worship

Prayer is an important aspect of our regular services of worship. It is through prayer that we offer praise and worship to God, ask that He provides for our needs, ask for and accept forgiveness of our sins, and intercede with prayers to God on behalf of others. Also, after the Sunday morning service there is always someone available in the side chapel to assist anyone wanting confidential support in praying over personal matters.


Through Private and Group Prayer

The church is open most days for private prayer. All are welcome to come in and use the contemplative surroundings to offer their own private prayers, or to simply rest quietly in God's presence. Details of daily opening times can be found here. There is also a prayer group, "St Andrew's At Prayer", that currently meets up once a month to pray together.


Through The Prayer Tree Inside St Andrew's we keep a "Prayer Tree", a small tree on which prayer requests can be hung. Those wanting to have prayers said, perhaps anonymously, may write a short request on a ticket and hang it on one of the branches. Members of the church are committed to reading these requests, and offering regular prayers for each.

Through the Online "Prayer Tree" at this website you may submit your own requests for prayer. All requests are treated in the same way as the tickets on the tree in church, and will be prayed over. Also, if you would like to include any of these online requests in your own prayers, you can read them here yourself.
