Reflection on the Sunday gospel reading: A group of parishioners meet in Bungalow Number 2 at the back of St Canice’s church every Thursday evening, from 7.30pm to 8.30 pm, to reflect on the gospel reading for the following Sunday. The gospel reading for the following Sunday is read three times in the course of the hour and after every reading there is a period of silence and some sharing. This way of praying the Scriptures is often referred to in Latin as Lectio Divina or in English ‘Sacred Reading’. It is a very prayerful time which helps us to be more attentive to the gospel reading for the following Sunday. It is open to everyone, every Thursday, and feel free to come to as many meetings or as few as you wish. Many people have found this way of praying a lovely way to deepen their appreciation of the gospels.
An Hour of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament: This weekly time of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament every Wednesday at 7.30pm. The Rosary is often recited to begin the time of prayer and there is also an opportunity for your own quiet, silent, prayer. The time of prayer concludes with Benediction at 8.15 pm.
