‘OREMUS’ is the name coined for parish events which focus on
spiritual renewal. It has been running since 2001, beginning with a series of
Lenten talks on scripture by Father James Hawes. Later that year there were
seven sessions presenting different approaches to prayer.
These were followed by a week of guided prayer in 2002, with 42 participants,
and nine prayer guides coming from all over the diocese. Some participants have
been continuing their spiritual journey with monthly faith-sharing meetings
based on an Ignation approach.

OREMUS  also responds to the liturgical year, offering
reflections for Advent and Lent and welcoming outside speakers. The venture in
our parish is co-ordinated by Valerie Quinlivan, Olive Newland and Pauline Rook, with support
from clergy and other parishioners. Suggestions for events,
or offers to run an event are welcome. OREMUS seeks to respond to
the spiritual needs of adults in the parish.
