Prayer Vigil for Ukraine - Milton Methodist Church, Milton Hill, WsM, BS22 9RA, Sunday 23rd October - 6pm

The illegal invasion of Ukraine continues to weigh heavily on the hearts and minds of us all.  Whilst there have been some territorial gains by Ukraine, and they appear to have the upper hand, this has come at a great cost. The 'so-called annexation' of 4 regions by Russia and a threat of nuclear tactical weapons has raised the anti, with counter threats and dialogue between the super-powers.  We are all praying... but there is still a sense that we need to gather in unity, representing the Church of our town, and the community - to be still, to reflect and to pray for breakthrough and lasting peace.

United Vigil

The churches along with people from across the community have been gathering together as an act of solidarity with the Ukrainian people, to light candles, to reflect and to pray for peace. Our vision is to help people find hope and strength amidst this desperate situation.

The town's Church leaders have set aside Sunday 23rd October for the next united gathering which will take place at Milton Methodist Church, Milton Hill, WsM, BS22 9RA, at 6pm. 

Rev Angela Hoare, at Milton Methodist Church said, 'We would welcome everyone from across the town for this vigil.  There will be an hour of quiet reflection, videos, prayers, and contemplation for those affected by the conflict in Ukraine - but also other wars that are taking place. This is an opportunity to stand in solidarity and sympathy with those whose lives have been turned upside down through no fault of their own. We look forward to welcoming you.'
