What is Mindful Church?

Mindful Church is a new kind of church built around several core principles - Community, Teaching, Gifts, Prayer, Meditation and Worship.  We meet on Zoom with a view to encouraging the development of local expressions of Mindful Church.  All are welcome to join us on Zoom.  Each meeting will include informal conversation, live meditation time, prayer, teaching (from the Bible) and worship.

Who is Mindful Church for?

Mindful Church is for everyone who wants to explore a more mindful approach to life.  You do NOT have to have an established faith to attend.  Do you struggle with stress, anxiety, low mood, loneliness?  Mindful Church could help you.  Mindful Church is focussed on relationship with Jesus Christ, relationship with one another and the value and importance of self-care to improve mental health.  The aim is to help each one of us to grow in faith and be encouraged by one another.

How can you join?

Just click on the Zoom link above on Sunday at 5pm UK time.  All welcome.
