Prayer Group
The Prayer Group has been in existence since 1975. It started in a parishioner’s house and then moved into the parish setting in 1978. It’s a charismatic group with strong emphasis on the Holy Spirit. The Prayer Group meets every Monday night between 7:00pm and 8:00pm to pray, share, offer prayer, scripture readings and share reflections. We also support missionary work in Ethiopia.
