24-7 Prayer Scotland Gathering
Event Information
Description
Join us for our annual gathering - this year in the beautiful city of Dundee!
Our gatherings are a time to come together across Scotland for worship, prayer, learning, story-telling, good food and great conversations.
This year we will gather all together in the main hall of Menzieshill Parish Church, beginning with coffee and registration at 10am then kicking off the day at 10.30am. We will be joined by a few special guests, one of whom is Jill Weber, Global Convener of the Order of the Mustard Seed (a lay ecumenical religious order), Director of Houses of Prayer for 24-7 Prayer, and Director of Spiritual Formation at Emmaus Rd Church in Guildford, UK.
Then in the afternoon, after a simple lunch of soup and sandwiches, there will be opportunity to break out into seminars or join a prayer walk around Menzieshill (weather permitting), finishing off with some prayer for the nation and worship all together.
The three seminars will be:
- Building a House of Prayer with Jill Weber
- Hope Spaces - Reimagining Our Spaces and Places of Prayer with Crystal Cryer
- Prayer Spaces in Schools (TBC)
There will also be opportunity to give towards the work of 24-7 Prayer Scotland and the costs of the day.
In the evening, we will be holding a ceilidh in the church for those who would like to stay on and join in on the fun. There will be dancing, poetry readings, story-telling... and of course food!
Please note this event is ticketed so a separate event page is set up here.
