Could you please pray for Kevin (known to some of you as he took part in the Bishop’s cert course and some bible studies) as he is having a cancer biopsy done today and for his wife Sara and children Arthur and Winifred.

Please would you kindly add Clive Knowles to the Prayer List. I am in contact with Tracy and Clive is in Intensive Care at Stoke having undergone a quadruple heart by-pass yesterday. From Penn

Please will you pray for Jack who is going blind at the age of 24. It’s so sad.

Please remember in you prayers  Joan Pugh Jones who is critically ill and has been transferred to the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff.  Please also pray for all the medical staff who are caring for her.

Please pray for Dawn's Mum - Gina.
She has been taken into Hospital in Oxford, today, still waiting to hear from her. Hoping she will have had MRI and results and it will catch the cause early....Update on Gina:  our prayers have already been answered in that the diagnosis is better that the one we feared which could have meant paralysis. She will still need an operation and the risk associated with that so please keep her in your prayers as well as Dad (Allen) as he cannot visit due to being vulnerable himself.
Thank you for your prayers as it has taken a huge burden off my shoulders knowing you are thinking of us and the Lord is listening and acting.
Praise be to God.

Singing Bowl

Begin the song exactly where you are,
Remain within the world of which you’re made.
Call nothing common in the earth or air,

Accept it all and let it be for good.
Start with the very breath you breathe in now,
This moment’s pulse, this rhythm in your blood

And listen to it, ringing soft and low.
Stay with the music, words will come in time.
Slow down your breathing. Keep it deep and slow.

Become an open singing-bowl, whose chime
Is richness rising out of emptiness,
And timelessness resounding into time.

And when the heart is full of quietness
Begin the song exactly where you are.
