·            A day of ‘Song and Silence for Peace: “Blessing & Beauty; Hope & Harmony” 11am-4pm in the Church Room, St Petroc’s South Brent with Nickie Aven. “A second day to sing for peace but this time, with more time for contemplation. We will sing quiet songs, some in unison, some in 2-3 parts, some from different traditions around the world and some home grown. There will be time to meditate and, weather permitting, time outside in nature. I welcome you bringing along a poem or a blessing to share and we will end with a simple ritual dedicated to peace. Please join me, bringing yourself, your love and your voice – whether you think you can sing or not.” Please bring your own lunch. Tea, coffee and cake will be provided. A donation of £30 is suggested, but don’t let money be a bar to you coming. Please pay what you can afford – or more if you can. Nickie is an interfaith minister, celebrant and former manager of a retreat centre on the edge of Dartmoor. She currently works with people who are grieving and dying for whom she also runs a Threshold singing group. To book, please complete the form here.
