On the third Saturday in May (D.V.) I will be prayer walking in the Meon Valley visiting parish churches at Corhampton, Exton and Meonstoke. I have informed local clergy, who have no objections to this spiritual practice.
Like the prayer walks that I used to lead in Essex and in Finland, it seems good to pray for certain topics at different churches or places. Bible readings from the Psalms would be chosen. The suggested topics are: the nation and those in authority, those in ministry, missions and Christian leadership, personal needs, the sick and the suffering, especially in war and in places of conflict/persecution.
There will be time for quiet reflection as well as open prayer. We may sing appropriate hymns or songs, like Majesty and Our God Reigns, but only if we feel in good voice and able to make a joyful sound.
We should break bread together at a pub on route and I hope to book a table, perhaps al fresco.
Please let me know if you wish to come.
Blessings from Bishopstoke
