“People who are wondering about the Service of Prayer for healing will find a quiet, reflective space where we will have some music, some liturgy and scripture and an opportunity for anyone who wishes to receive prayer for themselves or on behalf of another.
“It is such a privilege for us to have a presence in the centre of our town, and we hope these services will encourage people to join us, even as a one-off. Everyone is welcome!”
Friday 26th September: 1pm Service of Healing Prayer
Sunday 28th September: 10:30am All Age Harvest Celebration; 3pm Donegal Hospice Remembrance Service and 7:30pm Traditional Harvest Thanksgiving
