What's Happening
Things go a bit quiet at St Nick's over the summer holidays, although our regular worship continues. There are still things going on though:
In June and July we had four workshops on prayer.
Fr Simon's written material from the first session, and a recording of Sr Patricia's talk on contemplative prayer, can be found on our Christian Education page. Because of a bug in Adobe Contribute I can't link to it, but here's the URL: http://stnicholaschiswick.org/community/StNicholasChiswick-ChristianTeaching.shtml
