Events
You are welcome to join us for quiet mornings, long lunches and conversations, and monthly worship.
Quiet mornings
The Society of the Sacred Advent offers quiet mornings at various times throughout the year. These mornings are intended to offer space for contemplation, reflection and prayer, and will be led by members of the SSA Community.
Typically we gather for tea and coffee from 9.00am and conclude with a Eucharist at 12 noon. You are welcome to bring your lunch and stay on to eat together. Details for each Quiet Morning will be included in the event below.
More information for each Quiet Morning will be posted separately.
Worship
The Community meets on the first Sunday of the month at 4pm in the Sisters Chapel, Lapraik Street Albion for a Eucharist. In the winter months there is a time of fellowship and a cuppa from 3.30pm. In the summer months, the Eucharist is followed by light refreshments and conversation.
