Drawing on Ancient Rhythms
New Monastic prayer
For centuries, religious communities of many different persuasions have discovered the value of a rhythm of life, which includes regular times of prayer together.
These times of prayer take many forms, and we at Kairos have begun to explore some of these together with some opportunities to gather for corporate prayer either virtually via Zoom, in person, or both during the week.
At the moment we have the following options…
Morning Prayer - Thursdays (online)
Meeting at 7:30-7:45am we join Mark, Liane, Gavin & Fiona in Hull for their morning prayers. For those able to linger we offer another 10 minutes, afterwards, catching up or reflecting on the readings.
Night Prayer - Tuesdays (online)
Meeting again from Jan 2023 between 8:45 and 9:15pm we join Louisa for a time of guided reflecting on our day and prayers for our rest.
Northumbrian Morning Prayer - Sundays (York)
We gather weekly on-site, physically at 9:15am at Acomb Methodist church, Front street, Acomb, York for half an hour following Northumbrian morning prayer, with liturgy, small pieces of scripture, and a reflection. Even if you cant join us physically, you can join with the liturgy online at home or why not kickstart your own local group, maybe at a different date, or time, and invite others from the kairos movement along? Just let us know and we’ll share it with our mailing list.
A Sample of Morning Prayer
We regularly record our morning prayer times, and post them on our WhatsApp, but here is a sample from our Morning Prayers on 15th September 2022.
As you can see, we follow a similar pattern each time we gather, and then when the recording stops we have time for conversation.
