Creativity & Contemplation

9.00 am to 5.00 pm

Regular worship takes place Sundays at 9.00 am, Wednesdays at 9.00 am and Fridays at 10.00 am.
An invitation to pay attention
Come into this sacred space.
Wander slowly. Notice a stained glass, the architecture, the colours, shadows and changing light.
Allow one window, one detail, or perhaps simply the play of light or shadow, to hold your attention.
What draws you?
What changes when you stay with it?
What might you be invited to see differently?
What does it awaken in you about the beauty, fragility or wonder of creation?.
Create
Respond creatively to what you notice in whatever way feels right.
Photography · Painting · Drawing · Poetry · Prose · Abstract · Impressionism · Or something entirely your own.
You do not need to be an artist.
This is not a competition.
It is an invitation to pay attention
Share your creation
You are invited to share your response and become part of our communal Celebration of Creation.
What others have noticed
