Christians in Unity

 
Silent prayer

We have a small monthly meeting in Shannon for silent, contemplative, prayer.  If you are interested, contact the minister.

Are you interested in creative writing?  Writing for delight? For personal fulfillment? Already a published author? A new creative writing group is starting up in Shannon.  The next meeting is on Friday 18 May in the library.  This time we’ll be looking at writing short stories, as well as each other’s work.  All are welcome to bring their own writing.  
 
 Walking the Pilgrim Ways,  Ar bhealach na Naomh.    Thanks to all who joined us for the Clare Christian heritage walks this summer. These spiritual walks covered many of the ancient Christian sites in the country, often along traditional pilgrim routes.  The input of people on the routes this year was very helpful for the future.  They have resulted in articles, poetry and photographs. We are currently putting together plans for the summer,  liasing with other groups and organisations.  There will be an ecumenical walk and a chance to visit  Holy Island in Lough Derg, with an evening service in Tuamgraney  on Saturday 26 May (Whitsun Eve). Further information will be available shortly. Meanwhile, see the Prayer walking page.

 
In Shannon, as well as the regular services we have a new Bible Study, and  film nights.  The last film, on 13 February was Of Gods and Men, which is based on the true story of seven monks killed in 1996 during warfare in Algeria. the next – film to be announced, is scheduled for Tuesday 08 May.   All welcome – send an email in the comment box below for details.
