Quiet Day: Poetry & Prayer
Advertisement
Saturday 11 April, 10.30 am – 3.30 pm, St Mary’s Runwell
Explore prayer through poetry, with poems about prayers and poems that are prayers. Enjoy poems by John Berryman, John Donne, Carol Ann Duffy, George Herbert, Ann Lewin, and Spencer Reece among others.
Reflect in the magnificent mediaeval building that is St Mary’s Runwell, and relax in its beautiful churchyard. St. Mary’s itself is often described by visitors and by regular worshippers as a powerful sacred space to which they have been drawn. Experience this yourself, while also exploring its art and heritage.
Led by Revd Jonathan Evens, Team Rector, Wickford and Runwell Team Ministry, with Fr Spencer Reece, Rector, St Paul’s Wickford, Rhode Island
Cost: £8.00 per person, including sandwich lunch (pay on the day)
