Making Connections
Early Christian prayers show how connected the early church was to the God who created this world. It's good to remind ourselves of the rich Christian heritage of prayer and worship that we are now stewards of.
There are hundreds of new prayers on the site which I have written, and I've included other ancient prayers from the early days of the Church in Britain and Ireland.
You'll find a daily devotional, group Bible Studies and collections of prayers for download, as well as Celtic blessings, Christian quotes and a whole lot more!
This is very much a work in progress, and new prayers and worship resources are continually being added.
It's mainly a free resource, but that doesn't stop you buying an ebook!

Praying through the Celtic Year and Festivals
Is it a good thing for us to be looking
at these traditional/span> festivals
ffrom our pre-Christian past, and even celebrating them? /p>
Well, I think if you strip them down to their bare essentials
then there is something to be learned and celebrated in these
seasonal festivals. Christianity tried to
blot them out and replace them, but maybe we should have looked more
closely at the social and cultural reasons behind them, and brought
our Christian perspective and knowledge of God into them.

Some New Prayers
that true happiness comes from
possessions,
and those who find contentment
with the simple things of life
are wrong;
yet to such as these you came,
and such as these you sent,
to herald a kingdom
in which to lose all things
is to gain everything,
and where true happiness
comes from the possession
of this,
the knowledge of Jesus Christ
as Lord of our lives.
as we choose to walk
a different path,
or listen to voices
persuading us
to put faith aside
and pick up instead
a forbidden fruit.
Your love is constant
and accepting.
Your love is merciful
and forgiving.
Your love is grace-full
and inspiring.
Your love is...
Your love is...
all we are not
and everything you are,
our loving God and King.s
