Pausing for Prayer:

At this time we remember that the altar is always open, but it is not where God is more present than anywhere else. It is a place of solitude and stillness. We invite you to pray in the space you know is best for your heart, whether altar or seat, and let the praise team play over us while we embrace the presence of God here and as we dedicate these moments to reflection and intercession.
