An open period of silent worship in which we wait in God's presence among us as by a warm fire - gathering “with hearts knit together in love” (Colossians 2:2). An opportunity to set aside the noise of our busy lives and our preconceived thoughts to return home within and dwell in the light. In worship we return to a reality that is always within and around us- an invisible and living stream into which we can step at any time.
