Advent Breathing Space: Visions of the Nativity 1

At St Peter & St Paul, Seal we hold three small scale candlelit contemplative Communion services during Advent.

The theme for these special Advent services this year is "Visions of the Nativity" and the talk in each service will be focussed on a different classic approach to painting the  Christmas story. The first service looked at the image of Jesus as a newborn lying naked on the ground (see the example right by Fra Angelico) while Mary and Joseph kneel in prayer, an image that can seem rather odd to us - who'd leave a baby lying about like that, cold and uncomfortable...?

If you would like to read the talk, it is here on our sermon blog (the next two talks will be posted after they are delivered.) Of course, anyone who wants to is welcome to come along to these services - the next two are on Thurs 13th and 20th Dec at 8pm.

Advent "Breathing Space" Meditative Communion at St Peter & St Paul, Seal

Thurs Dec 6, 13, 20 at 8pm  St Peter and St Paul, Seal 

(TN15 0AT)

Quiet, contemplative, services of Holy Communion in the candlelit Lady Chapel of Seal Church with a short talk. This year we'll be looking at various depictions of the nativity in art to help us reflect. The addresses will be posted on this site each week after the service, but if you can join us for the service, you will be very welcome!

Our "Breathing Space" services are simple services of Holy Communion, with pools of silence dotted through them and  music to listen to beforehand. They last about 30 minutes.
