Do you have a special place where you might feel close to God? Is there a favourite church building that draws you into the divine presence? In the New Testament, the word ‘Church’ always refers to God’s people and never to a building. Yet many of us find comfort in familiar places devoted to prayer and worship.

This week we are thinking about sacred spaces. Some might have a part of their home given over to prayer. Some might feel that sense of peace or joy on a garden bench or on a favourite walk. Some might feel it in a church building. If you don’t have a special ‘sacred space’ at home, maybe you could create one.
