Dear Friends
Here are the details of our gatherings this week.
Tuesday 1st March 7 – 7.45 pm: Living Water Meditation for St David’s Day on Zoom
We will meditate on the sacred element of water, in honour of Saint David, who was known as Aquaticus or Dewi Ddyfrwr (the water drinker) in Welsh, because he drank only water. No previous experience of meditation is required. Led by Laura Dobson. All welcome.

Thursday 3rd March 7 – 8.15 pm: Heart and Soul on Zoom
Heart and Soul is a contemplative spiritual gathering in which you can take time to reflect on life in the company of others. Each session follows a regular pattern, including readings and music, time for guided prayers of gratitude, compassion for others, self-reflection, and silent meditation. Led by Laura Dobson. All welcome.
This weeks theme is ‘Peace.’
‘True peace is always possible. Yet it requires strength and practice, particularly in times of great difficulty. To some, peace and nonviolence are synonymous with passivity and weakness. In truth, practicing peace, to make peace alive in us, is to actively cultivate understanding, love, compassion, even in the face of misperception and conflict. Practicing peace, especially in times of war, requires courage.’ — Thich Nhat Hanh
