We are hosting this annual World Day of Prayer service as part of our partnership of churches. This year the women of Nigeria have prepared the service which reflects on the theme, “I will give you rest.”

The World Day of Prayer is an international, women-led, ecumenical movement that shares the hopes, concerns, and prayers of women from around the globe. Each year, women from a different country craft a service, sharing their unique spiritual journey and culture. For 2026, the women of Nigeria have created a service that speaks to our need for peace and solace, drawing on their faith and experiences in a world filled with struggles and anxieties.

This service is a wonderful opportunity to learn about our sisters from Nigeria. All are welcome.

Calling all budding artist! Our theme for this term is ‘Rest’. Anything goes, from photographs to craft work, from abstract art to poetry and even gardening!  We would love to share your talent and creativity with others here.

Please send a decent photo of the work (or a photo itself) to waltonartsandcrafts@gmail.com. New contributors are always welcome.

‘Revive’ an informal prayer group meet in church between 9:15 – 10:00am, weekly during term time.

Our prayer chain is available to anyone who needs to request prayer – either for themselves, for a loved one or someone they know. If you have an urgent prayer need and would like to be supported in prayer, we have a group of people at church committed to pray for any needs which arise. All requests will be treated in strict confidence, kept within the group and anonymised if you wish it. Just contact Rev Matt with your request via email (prayerchain.wavendon@gmail.com) or phone and he will send it out to all who support the prayer chain. Prayer Chain members do not know who the other members are, so anything shared is never discussed in other places or between prayers.
