The Ministers here at St Wilfild's usually come together on the Wednesday prior to their Sunday ministry, to pray, study and practise. The purpose of proclaiming the living Word of God in the midst of the assembly is to help the members experience the living and life-giving presence of Jesus who is the Word.
