Prayer and Worship

Prayer of Franciscan Conservation

Living God
Where there is waste, let us bring recycling,
Where there is recycling, let us bring reuse,
Where there is reuse, let us bring sustainability,
Where there is sustainability, let us bring justice
Where there is justice, let us bring love

John Polhill (from Eggs and Ashes published by Wildgoose, by permission)


Francis of Assisi was a person overwhelmed by the love and generosity of God which he knew and saw all around him; his life was given over to the contemplation and praise of God in all things.

Prayer and worship are offered by the brothers daily; visitors are welcome to share in these though there is no pressure to do so. The three chapels can be used for personal prayer or silent meditation and other rooms can be made available.

St Claire's Chapel is set aside for prayer for peace and the environment and we welcome requests for prayer from those outside the Friary community.
